Hopefully someone will post an answer for you, but in case they don't, then you can safely estimate by paying attention to how much you drain out of it. Put roughly that much back in, checking the dipstick as you go. Once you get close but not over, start it up so that the filter can fill up, then check it again. Top it off based on the dipstick. It is a little more work, but it can be done safely. I just had to do it with a Bobcat skid steer, with a Kubota engine in it. It held almost 2 1/2 gallons!

Thank you hodge, it looks logical.
Another question how much oil in gear box? but probably I can use your advice also.

If somebody has exact answer I would be glad to get it..

I've seen some marked on the oil filler cap, or right beside it on the valve cover. Some can be surprisingly small amounts, like 2.7 liters or so.
