The bottom section of my 3 section loft ladder does not slide

The middle section slides up against the fixed section a treat but the
bottom section seems to have two or three points where it binds and I
can't work out why or how to fix it.

I've tried some silicone spray but the runners are clean anyway.

The ladder is a Youngman New Easyway (sticker says manufactured Week

But mine is 100Kg limit.


Just to add to the many suggestions - lithium grease.
