Does anyone have any experience with sticky shutter rings on the Hi-matic 7s?

This is a bit stiff on my camera and i dont like putting a lot of twisting force on the lens.

I hear that lubricating with ronsonol may do the trick, can this be done without taking the lens apart?

The shutter ring goes underneath the aperture ring so lubricating under the shutter ring may be difficult.

Any thoughts? If it means taking the lens apart does anyone have any guidelines on this?

Many thanks

Dan
