It just sits on the cap, grips it by friction. The extra ribs on the cap shown @ RepairClinic may help it grip a bit more securely, but otherwise I don't think the ribs, bumps, and depressions make any difference. Your cap is the "classic" 1960s through 1980s Surgilator cap. Same design was used in chrome, black, and white. Our 1962 machine had a chrome cap exactly like that. It didn't have a softener dispenser, but this one would have worked.

Our 1976 super-capacity machine had a slightly different design. The cap itself didn't have an integral screw. A separate double-threaded screw held the agitator down. A nut inside the agitator cap secured the cap on top, there was an insert that snapped off the top of the cap to get to the nut inside. The 1976 machine did have this dispenser.
