Your e-Spinner has been lacquered prior to assembly. If desired Ashford 
Wax Finish may be applied to further enhance it’s appearance.

Assembly

1. 

Thread the 2 hooks into the pilot holes in the flyer base.

2. 

Squeeze and slide the stainless steel yarn guides onto the flyer 
arms.

3. 

Locate the bolt through the slot in the front and secure with a 
washer and locking knob. 
Warning! - Ensure the head of the bolt fully engages the slot in 
the latch before switching on. If not, the front could open and 
release the flyer, which could be damaged.

4. 

Thread the screw eye with the tension spring attached into the 

 

pilot hole in the left hand side.

5. 

Thread the screw eye into the pilot hole in the right hand side.

6. 

Apply a drop of oil to the flyer spindle and slide the bobbin on.

Dear Spinner,
Congratulations on purchasing your new e-Spinner. The e-Spinner continues the tradition of my parents Joy and Walter, to design and make 
spinning wheels to meet the needs of spinners. There are now over 500,000 Ashford Spinning wheels in use around the world and we are 
sure you will enjoy using your new e-Spinner. Thank you for choosing Ashford.
Happy spinning,

Elizabeth and Richard Ashford

7. 

Loosen and lift the locking knob, then open the e-Spinner front.
As the shaft has minimal clearance on the front bearing, until it 
has bedded in, it may be necessary to gently pull on the bearing 
at the same time as opening the front.

8. 

Slide the flyer shaft into the flexible nylon drive bush on 
the motor shaft, rotating it until the shaft slides on and fully 
engages.
