Hi, your system of equations has a singularity at this point and one of the components goes to infinity. The stepsize control detect the singularity and reduce the stepsize until it is to small. You should care full analyse the differential equation if the singularity is not expected/obvious. With an ordinary differntial equations solver it is impossible to jump over the singularity, because the most ode solver use a polynomial approximation to the solution and you can't approximate 1/x with a polynomial of positive powers.
