My understanding is that there is only the two mechanisms, one for the fast speeds, and the escapement for the slow speeds. Are you sure that you information isn't referring to the fast speed mechanism as the "inertia retard" mechanism?

I need to know about the inertia retard which is located in the same location. I've been told it can only be lubed in certain parts.
