No grease nipple on this one Rod.
You wonder why they switch from oil to grease because it's not hard to remove the lower plate, replace the seal & re-fit. I did that on my Series I a while back.
Looks like thunderstorms today so maybe I'll get the shaft on the lathe & clean up where the seal bears. The diameter obviously reduces a bit but the seal still seals OK.
