Left z axis lead screw gets stuck

I have been very excited getting my first 3d printer after waiting many years. It arrived today and I was cautiously excited. It all put together fine, but I have been having big problems with the left z axis stepper motor binding up on the lead screw. At first it did not want to go down more than 2-3cm then managed to get it down with the level bed tool, but now it is stuck down and I can hardly turn the lead screw by hand when turned off and that is just trying to keep it level. The other one turns easily. I made sure to look for any grunge on the screws and they looked fine. Any suggestions or links that may help would be appreciated.
