Default adding Rocker c fork oil

Put new chrome sliders on the Rocker, have to re-fill the forks with oil, had the front end off the ground forks hanging took off the top fork nut, it won't take oil.
Any ideas on how to add fork oil
Thank you
Mark

My manual is right in front of me if you can find a page where it says how to put oil in Rocker forks let me know as mine must be missing that page.
My 99 FXSTC take off the top bolt pour it in easy the Rocker is sealed under that bolt.
I lowered the fork from the tripple tree took of the top plug poured in the oil and put the top back on plug was tricky because of spring pressure but i got it.Thanks for the video.I do 99% of my own work the closest stealer is 120 miles away.
