Welcome to TBN. Its going to be a lot easier to find the correct answer if you could give the model number.

My rotavator has a dipstick on the top and it takes at least two quarts. Don't have my manual handy but will check later

I have three Howards, two are selectatilth and the other day one was a little low, it took a quart to top it off, so I'm sure it holds over two quarts, probably three...

The manual said Howard Rotavator Model HA-V.

It calls for SAE 140 6 pints in the gearbox (fill to dipstick) and 2 pints in the chain case (fill to level of plug).
