I no longer use mine to grind out the km in order to burn a few calories and keep fit. I am looking for one to keep in the van.....

I have just serviced my jack to the letter of the law. It jacks up perfectly, and lowers ok with van pushing it down, however if I just want to push the shaft down by hand it is really stiff, almost impossible. Anyone any clues? Thanks.
