Oiling system on early Triac?

Does the early all-green Triac have an oiler built in (can't see one in any pics of it)? If not, how is it oiled?

Ah, OK, that would account for it. Thanks.

I take it that means you'd need to have access to the rear of the column in order to fill the oiler?
Which in turn would make mounting the unit on a bench well nigh impossible.
I presume that's why they moved the oiler outside the column on later models.
