Over spinning happens when twist is added too quickly or drafting is too slow. Adjust by using a larger whorl, treadling slower, increasing brake tension, and improving fibre prep.
Ensure continued maintenance of your wheel which includes lubricating as indicated in the manual. The brake band tension may also need to be reduced.
Ensure the bobbin rotates freely, the orifice is clear. Adjust brake tension and check for any snags to ensure smooth spinning.
