Just go easy on the oil there... A strategic drop on the end of a pin at relevant points will do: no more than that. There's an instruction here which you may or may not have seen. It might be worth removing your dial and cleaning it thoroughly first then re-lubricating it - it isn't a terribly onerous job. I expect you're meant to use Mobius oil or clock oil, or even light machine oil, but I use a drop of 3-in-one spray oil collected in a small dish. Don't use WD-40 and expect miracle results either.
I don't know about dial gizmos but they may be far more tolerant than the exchange and you can get away with more. Have fun!
