I finally figured it out, after carefully removing the hinge pin from the face cover that hides the light bulb. There is a screw, on the inside top of that face cover which can be reached with a screw driver after removing the top cover from the machine which is held with one screw. After loosening the screw on the inside of the face cover, it opened. Now I have access to clean and oil those parts.
