Two gallons is the proper amount, you should change the filter too, do you know where that is? Prpbably not, its in the cylindrical cannister on the furrow or right hand side of the engine towards the rear of the block, it'll have a 7/8 inch hex head bolt at the top. You unscrew this bolt after you have drained the oil from the filter chamber by removing the pipe plug at the lower mounting casting. You'll see the replaceable element under this cylindrical cover. Get a new element at any farm supply store or CaseIH dealer and install it just like the old one was, replace the cover and plug. Drain the oil from the engine pan by removing the plug at the bottom of the pan and let all the old oil run out into a suitable receptacle. Replace the plug and fill the crankcase by removing the "winged lug" flipper like cap that is just up ahead of the magneto or distributor near the front of the right side of the engine. Put two gallons of 30 weight motor oil in, start the tractor and make sure pressure shows on the oil pressure gauge on the hood top. After running the tractor 5 minutes or so, shut it down and check the oil level by loosening the upper petcock on the oil pan, oil should drip out. The pan is full if oil drips at the UPPER petcock, I won't confuse you by trying to explain why there are two petcocks, you don't need to know at this point. Get an operator's manual as soon as you can, you'll never regret it.
