What’s safe to lubricate on Marvin Ultimate operating hardware?

For Marvin Ultimate windows, how do you tell when an operator, hinge, or lock just needs routine cleaning and lubrication versus an adjustment or replacement part? I’m especially interested in which cleaners and lubricants are approved for the specific hardware, and how to keep them off finishes and weatherstripping.

Does the symptom help narrow it down, such as stiffness only at one point in the handle’s travel or a lock that won’t line up? What signs mean lubrication probably isn’t the fix, and when is it better to ask Marvin or a window service professional before trying to adjust anything?
