I manage a Honda Motorcycle/ATV service shop and we do these machines all day long. This is the only engine that you can't overfill with oil. Since it is a hydrostatic transmission, it's basically a big oil pump. In this case: the more oil, the better.
Run the machine to warm it up for a few minutes, then remove both oil drain bolts, and remove the oil filter. Warm oil drains much faster then cold. After it's done draining fill it back up with 5 full quarts of Honda's GN4 10W30, or the HP4S full synthetic. When you've run it for a bit, and pull the cap from the oil sump, it should be all the way full about to overflow.
When the oil level is too low, (or in this case not as high as possible) the transmission may make grinding noises. Not good.
