Just checked, the oil is right above the top red line on the headstock (would have posted a macro pic but I guess I reached my MB limit, can not add any more pics). Ask Ed, he saw pics of the lathe dirty, takes a loooooong time to clean it, and I do it after each job. Most of my tools, even after years of use look like new (mental problem). I got that way long time ago when told about tools to "use it, clean it, put it back in the same place you got it".
