Our wheels are designed with high grade, sealed roller bearings that 

are greased from the factory and will never require oil or any other 

attention. No parts of our wheels require oil or grease of any kind.

If you notice your achievable tension being less than before, the Kevlar 

tension belt may need to be cleaned of aluminum oxide buildup. 

Inspect the area of the belt that contacts the aluminum drum. If there 

is a large buildup of dark powder, you can freshen it by gently brushing 

the belt with your thumb to remove most of the alumina. The contact 

area of the Kevlar may show some “seasoning,” in the form of being a 

little fuzzy. This is to be expected and should not change the tension 

profile. The provided belt material is 1.5 mm Kevlar (yellow). You may 

experiment with other Kevlar braids from 1.0 to 3 mm for a softer 

or firmer tension profile. You are welcome to try other materials like 

cotton, nylon, or silk.

To clean your e-spinner, please use a lint-free cloth. If needed, 

dampen the cloth with water only. Please do not use detergents or 

cleaners. Canned air is recommended for keeping crevices clean of 

fiber and yarn debris, but be certain to keep the can upright while 

spraying to avoid damaging the surface.

If you live in a high humidity area, you may notice some slight 

tarnishing on the maiden bearing. This can be cleaned with a jewelry 

polishing cloth.

Please inspect your rubber o-rings for any cracks, as dry rot can 

happen in extremely dry climates. They can be protected with any oil 

and are easily replaceable with the spares provided in your kit.

If you need any assisance with your wheel, please do not hesitate to 

reach out to [email protected]
