It should be written on the tire sidewall. If it has worn off, it is also written on the inner side. Use a digital camera to take a photo on the inner side. Depending on the tire size they are around 14 psi front and 10 psi rear. Lower pressures are better for grip and less prone to puncture. Be careful these tire inflate quickly and can burst.

SOURCE: How do I chamnge the oil in my Craftsman lawn

There should be a pipe OR quick release valve coming out the right side at the bottom of the engine where it bolts to the frame. Most of the Craftsman riders I have worked on, had a long pipe with an elbow at the end of it and a plug in the bottom of the elbow for draining. Turn the wheels all the way to the left to allow enough room for a collection pan. It holds less than 2 quarts so the pan doesn't need to be too large

How do you manually push a craftsman lawn tractor? the back tires will not move when it is not running.

If this is a hydrostatic machine there will be a bypass lever somwhere on the tractor to dissengage the axle ( either in the back plate of the tractor, or under the seat )

The blades are cutting unevenly

I know this will sound a little crazy, but check the air pressure in you tires. My neighbor had the same problem. The tires looked okay until he sat on the mower. One of the rear tires was low which caused the mower to sit lower on one side. Next check the linkages on the deck to make sure they are hooked up and haven't fell off.

Grease fittings

You can drive the front tires up on a set of tire ramps and grease the front and then drive the rear tires up on the ramps and grease the rear.

OR just lay on the floor and reach under using a grease gun with a flexible delivery hose.

If you do use a jack just be sure to jack on the frame of the tractor as opposed to any sheet metal.
