Direction Switch
I - Clockwise Z twist (commonly chosen for spinning singles)
0 - Neutral
II - Counterclockwise S twist (commonly used for plying)
(Note: this is for Scotch tension; Irish tension is the reverse)
• Tie a leader (a long loop of fingering weight yarn or your
personal preference) onto the bobbin. Use the provided
orifice hook to route the leader through the yarn guide,
then through the shoulder of the flyer, and then through the
orifice.
• Plug your 15V 5 amp wall power supply (or your 15V battery)
into the Speed Controller.
• The module should light up and show the current set speed.
Adjust this as necessary using the Up/Down arrows, and then
press the Start/Stop on the Speed Controller. The display will
show “- - -“, which is stopped.
• Attach your fiber to the leader loop. Verify the display still says
“---“, which means it is stopped. Flip the direction switch to
the desired direction (I is Z twist, II is S twist in Scotch tension
and reversed in Irish tension).
• When ready, press Start/Stop. The wheel will slowly accelerate
for 3 seconds to your set speed %. You can fine-tune your
speed while spinning by using the Up/Down arrows. When it’s
time to advance your yarn guide, press the front of the Start/
Stop and the wheel will slowly decelerate for 3 seconds and
come to a full stop.
• Increase or decrease your speed using the Up and Down
arrows. Pay attention to the takeup and adjust the
tension knob accordingly. Fine-tune your speed as you get
comfortable. You will need to slightly adjust the tension as you
change your speed and as the bobbin fills with yarn.
