On the back there's 4 sscrews that hold a cover on, under that cover is the diaphram.

Thanks. The fluid level is in the middle of the window. I don't see any sign of a leak, so I think I'll just try filling it. How do I take it apart if I want to replace the seal/diaphram?

If it's a regular old wet compass or whisky compass, buy compass fluid from a source like A/C Spruce. There's a large screw on the top to add fluid thorugh. If it's low, generally the unit is leaking. You can purchase a rebuilding kit from A/C Spruce which includes the rear seal and fluid. The rear seal is a diaphram which allows for expansion and contraction depending on temperature and fails.

I need to add fluid to my compass. I haven't been able to find any instructions. Has anyone done this?
