On the front right of engine (in front of magnito) there is a cap that unscrews. It is maybe a little bigger around than a pop can. This is where you dump the oil in. Fill to the top petcock on right side of oil pan. You will have to unscrew the petcock a little and oil should come out there when it reaches that level. Not possitive on the amount it will hold but probably in the 4 to 6 quart range. Just slowly dump untill it comes out of petcock. Start tractor and allow the oil filter to fill up and shut it back down. Then fill to the petcock again for the missing oil that is now in filter.

Good point. The rocker arms have to be oiled manuelly by operator. Oil pump doesn't pump to top of engine. If tractor still has readable decals it tells about this on the decal on valve cover. Need to oil rocker arms every so many operating hours. I was thinking the petcocks were on right side of tractor pan (same side as mag and oil fill cap). I guess I will have to look at the 20 again the next time I mess with it. I could of swore they was.

Just to help clarify a bit further, the fill cap is on the top of the governor housing. The cap(and gov. housing) are cast iron, and the cap generally has two little "ears" that stick up that you can lightly tap on to loosen it like a giant wingnut. When you take the cap off there's a little "screen"(metal plate with holes drilled in it) underneath that you pour the oil through. Like the other post said, it's full when it runs out the petcock on the other side of the pan. While you're at it, don't forget to squirt a small bit of oil in the rockerarm oilers which are the two larger hinged cups on the top of the valvecover.
