Default Front final gear case oil?

I know I'm not the brightest light in the house, but my 2015 mule 4010 trans is due for it's 50 hour maintenance and the man who is going to do it for me asked me to get all the materials together for him. I'm thinking I need oil and filter, air filter, plus front final gear case oil and transmission case oil. I don't really understand these last two--are they the same as motor oil or what? If someone with obviously more knowledge than me could enlighten me as to what materials I need to get for this 50 hour service, I would sincerely appreciate it!

Thank you very much for this information! I'm wondering if the diesel takes the same as the gasoline model (probably so). The dealer told me he didn't have owner's manuals--that they would have to be purchased or downloaded off the internet, so I cannot check to verify this. Needless to say, I will never return to the dealer for anything! This is just ONE of the sly little tricks he played on me. Anyway, thanks so much for taking the time to help me out!
