Default Skimmer help

I bought a T5000 Shorty II skimmer and for the life of me I cannot get it to dial in at all. I have an ehiem 1262 pump feeding water into it and have a ball valve inline between them. The problem is no matter how much I slow the feed rate all that happens is the body fills with water then the collection cup starts to fill...It is making great amounts of bubbles but will overflow in a couple minutes even when dialed right back, only when I shut the feed pump off and leave the other running does it look correct well close that is....Anyone have any insight here?
I am open to all suggestions
Thanks
Ian
