I always put in 6 quarts when doing an oil and filter change. In between changes, I check the oil level by opening the top petcock. If oil drips out, it is good to go. If no oil drips out, I then add fresh oil just to the point where it DOES drip out of the top petcock. Might be a full quart, might be only 1/2 quart.
The bottom petcock is for use when the tractor was burning distillate fuel. The distillate was a rather dirty fuel, and would contaminate the engine oil, so each morning before the engine was started, that bottom petcock was to be opened which allowed one full quart of contaminated oil to be drained off, and then you closed that petcock, opened the top one, and added fresh oil until it dripped out. The tractor was then good to go for another day of work.
