Can't seem to find one online that I can zoom in on and read clearly.
Also having problem visualizing location: (from pg14 of model A instruction book)
*Approximately every 2000 miles, lubricate the clutch release
bearing. This is done by removing the hand hole cover and
turning the bearing until the lubricator fitting is at the top.
Lubricate the bearing by means of the compressor grease gun.
What's the hand hold cover and where's that bearing?

I believe this statement is referring to the early cars that used the multi-disk clutch. The clutch release bearing (throw-out bearing) had the grease fitting in the bearing and you had to rotate the bearing in order to get at the grease fitting. The hand hole cover must be a reference to the little removable plate on the top of the bell housing.
