There should be a chrome nob on the left side of the reel, the more you crank that in the slower the spool will be. Cranked out speeds the spool up.

Yeah, I found it and cranked it down. Cast it in my house and caught a 9 lb little dog that grabbed the practice plug. Wife yelled at me. The rod went back into the garage.

No humans were harmed in the practice though so you're good.
