I believe that the early RTV 900 units had the hydraulic pump driven off the transmission. My RTV1100 has a metal tank under the seat with an engine mounted hydraulic pump used for power steering and bed lift and think the newer 900 units are the same. Have heard alot of the plastic tanks on the hydraulics for the 900 with the extra outlets getting hot and melting with extended use.
If the plastic tank on the 900 is loosing fluid and the transmission is getting full you need to look at the SHAFT SEAL on the pump or some where on the pump it is leaking into the sump. This is similar case in tractors where the engine oil gets super full also
