What Gemini do you have? When you say 'hard' do you mean actually pulling and pushing on the handle or are the valves hard to get to?

If it's the former and the handles are hard to move, you may have some build up in the valve channel or the handle may just need lubrication.

Try adding some tank cleaner to your tank, preferably the kind that digests waste. Let it work its magic for a couple of days.

And spray silicone lube on the exposed shaft of the valve handle, open and close it a few times and see if that helps.

If that doesn't work after a bit, or if you're having problems just getting to where you can pull the handle, I would investigate swapping out your current valve with an electric one. No muss, no fuss and the installation will cure any channel issues you have with the valve. Any RV dealer could probably get that done for you.

Good luck.
