Greases recommended in period manuals is not the same grease as today used on bearings and bushings.
The original greases melted at a lower temperature and slowly moved into the porous oilite bushing, lubricating the armature shaft,
Modern greases will not melt and therefore will not penetrate the bushing or lubricate the shaft,
So to half fill the reservoir with a thickish oil, engine oil, etc is fine,
