Which should almost always be left clean and dry (Kodak shutters recommend grease in this area, but be very light and wipe 'clean'). And if none of this works, time to break it open and get to the actual blades and the blade ring and pathway. You'd be amazed how much grease or oil remains after you wipe a part down with a cotton swab or clothe. Apply only at contact points, then wipe away.

If it doesn't function, start lubricating specific spots based on interfaces and working from the 'outside' in (e.g., a cocking rack is 'farthest' from the shutter blades, escapement next, then the mechanism that actually opens and closes the blades). Recommendation if you do not know if a shutter should be lubricated: clean thoroughly, assemble dry. I will post this manual for Synchro-Compur shutters and direct people's attention to section 4-3 (p.22, starting near bottom) titled 'Lubricating Instructions.' I doubt that Honeywell, the importer of Rolleiflexes for a period of time, was determined to provide information that would cause shutters to malfunction.
You are right, many shutters are designed to run dry, but not all. Not sure where this idea comes from, as an absolute.
