I've never used one, but if you don't see anything that could be a fill port on the outside, by deduction the only other place the fill port could be is underneath all that paneling.

I suppose that's a useful suggestion. How easily does the sight glass pop out? Often they're not held in by much.

Side note: actually glad it is oiled for lubrication.

I just spoke to wes, and was instructed to NOT fill from the back.

Remove the sight glass and fill there.
