If the antenna is hard to crank or it chatters when coming down then it needs to be lubed. I went up by mine and sprayed silicone lube in the gear on top. Also got to the shaft and lubed it the same way. Now the antenna goes very easy and it does not chatter when coming down. Don't know how long this will last as I only did it in the Spring.
I have no pressure on the handle and it wouldn't break a handle now.
