DO NOT grease it up or take it apart - greasing will not remove old grease that is hardened, and disassembly is out of the question - time intensive, likely to lose bearings or parts. Best to have a shop remove the freewheel (don't remove any guards or spacers underneath the freeewheel). Dunk it in solvent and spin until it runs free, then just follow Sheldon's lubrication advice:
