Question on ease of use of 2016 Cannondale floor pump.

Its a good pump.
A pretty neon green which the salesman says makes it pump faster.😉🙄😉
But its the pump head that pains me. Dual sided to fit most bikes.
Automaticaly grasps the valve threads too.
All you do is press down and it pops into place.
therein lies the rub. It takes a lot of pressure to get it to clamp down.
Even if my tube is just getting a top up the valve tries to descend right into the rim.
Now I can pinch two fingers around the valve which lessens the issue but its a pain.
Anyone have a similar issue and or a fix?
