Anyone install the needle swing arm bearings? My directions form Mikes XS are in German!

Not too difficult, however there are a couple of Achtungs! in the instructions I can't figure out. If anyone has done this tips or hints will be welcome.

Also there is no grease hole in the pivot shaft sleeve. How are you supposed to lube this assembly? On installation and take it apart periodically to lube?
