nuevo side window blinds

HI there  I have to use quite a lot of force to push up the blinds on both side windows, has anyone else had this problem and how have they overcome this problem? thanks for any advice given.

Same here, but I've lived with it.

Easier if you push them up a little way, then get your fingers well underneath and push directly up, rather than twisting slightly.

Does that make sense?? It does help.

I also make sure that I have the fly screens down and attached to the blind before I 'heave' it up.

My blinds on a 53 plate Devon  were stiff to raise. I opened the windows and sprayed the running tracks with silicone spray which made them easier. I repeat this when necessary.

Mine are very stiff  ,l live with it
