When the pivot point of a lever changes, it can affect the mechanical advantage of the lever. Moving the pivot closer to the load decreases the force required to lift it but increases the distance over which the force must be applied. Conversely, moving the pivot closer to the effort force increases the force required to lift the load but decreases the distance over which the force must be applied.

How do you reduce the force of a lever?
The force a lever can apply to a given point greatly depends on two distances:The distance from the pivot point to the object to be lifted and the distance from the pivot point to the point on the lever where force will be applied.To reduce the distance from the pivot-point to the point where Force is applied is to reduce the "force" of a lever.
