easiest way is to fill from the side until it flows out. Then put the bung in and you're good to go.

on the end of the gearbox there's a round headed bolt with a square middle. one upper and one lower. the lower one is to drain the oil out and the upper is to re-fill/ check the oil level.

You need a 5mm square headed socket, undo the upper bolt and oil should dribble out. If it doesn't then it needs topping up...
