I have an EDP, and I have used it for a season, and it is still so stiff when trying to fully open it. Anybody have experience witht this? Do I need to lube something?
I heated mine with a heat gun ( not a torch) while closed right at the pivot & then open all the way it seats into the washers a bit betterI have an EDP, and I have used it for a season, and it is still so stiff when trying to fully open it.

Interesting. From the way you write it, it sounds like you changed platforms. What did you switch to? Been satisfied with it?Not sure how much you used it throughout the year but sounds like you just need to work it in a little more. You don’t want it loose really.
Another thought, when I had mine, I remember it seemed like the post slightly rubbed on one side of the platform underneath when you got it almost fully extended out. You can usually see if it’s rubbing on the inner wall on either side of where the post goes on the bottom side of the platform.
To be honest I don’t remember what platform I went to after the EDP. I went through a period where I just jumped from one platform to another just to try different ones. I would buy another EDP though if I was in the market. It’s incredibly sturdy, built like a tank and bites the tree harder than most other platforms out there in my experience.Interesting.
