Yes lubricate it with Lithium grease
Is it tight when you go from 1st to 2nd ??
If so its not adjusted correct. Loosen off the 2 x 13mm head bolts slightly so its can be mooved a little, centralise the shifter in neutral and then
shift into 2nd gear.
Again centralise the shifter in 2nd gear and tighten the 2 bolts back up.
