The 4qts was the total amount for both transmissions and yes it was my first time draining the fluid.
I did finally get it all working. Just running the motor with the hydros disengaged and exercising the drive for each hydro the fluid slowly worked its way into the hydros. I'd let it sit for a few hours, come back and add a bit more fluid. Eventually, got enough fluid in where power to each wheel returned. Repeated the process several times after driving the mower until I finally got all the fluid back in.
