When you get to a certain number of sewing machines, you gotta do what you gotta do to get your other things put away. I just got a Ruby head when I didn't know where to put the machines I already had! Things get creative

Mickey2,
Singer 201's have two grease/gear boxes underneath. The cover plates come off and inside you will see. Might check yours out to see if I am correct about your particular machine.

I know, my 201K with a belted motor has the same covers, each fitted with three screws. I've had them off, but still the oil points are easier to use and I find they run a notch better on oil. I have tried both, the manual calls for oil and it's not strictly necessary to remove the caps when using oil.
