Note the lubricating cups with two cocks and an oil-container between them.
Turn the upper cock and fill the bulb with lubricating-oil, then close it and
turn the lower cock so the lubricating-oil can trickle into the cylinder. Using
a wet rag to cool down the oil-bulb will make the procedure easier to perform.

deputy head of State.
