I have a D-6 9U15925 S/N.  Trying to grease the rollers on the tracks, but do not see a grease zerk ? Just some kind of  a nut with a groove
going around it ? Trying to find it in parts manual, no luck so far. I believe the machine is mid 1950's .
Thank you for any info you may have.

That is an Alemite Button Head fitting. These machines all came with a hand grease pump that would use those fittings. See attached photo.

If you type Alemite button head grease fitting in the search bar it will show you options. The Alemite fitting in your photo needs to be replaced, they are still available.

get em from the dealer. cheapest source. still used today. also known as giant button head fitting you can still buy the high volume low pressure grease pumps. or get adapters to fit them for use with a conventional grease gun. very easy to pop seals though with a normal grease gun

instead of perfection some times we just have to accept practicality
