OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

STEP 1: With the control dial set to “0” and power switch set to off (O), plug the power cord into a standard AC wall outlet.
STEP 2: Place honey frames in extractor basket. Load three sides to keep extractor balanced as this will reduce any possible shaking.
STEP 3: Close both lids to engage safety switches. Flip the power switch to the on (I) position, making sure the emergency stop button
is not engaged. and turn the dial until the basket is spinning at the desired speed. The front lid has a built in safety switch that will cut power the moment it is opened, and power will not be restored until lid is closed. Turn the dial back to “0” when frames have been emptied and remove the frames from the extractor.
STEP 4: Once the frames have been emptied on one side, remove the frames, turn the frames around, and place them back in the xtractor. Repeat step 2, then remove the frames from the extractor.
STEP 5: With the drain positioned over a bucket or other container, open the honey gate to begin draining honey. Tip the extractor forward to drain as much honey as possible.
WARNING: KEEP HANDS CLEAR OF MOVING PARTS TO REDUCE RISK OF INJURY
DISASSEMBLY
To disassemble the extractor, remove the four cap nuts on the top of the extractor (two on each side), then, using 3mm Allen Wrench (T-A), loosen the set screws in the coupler and pull the top brace up and off. The basket can then be lifted out.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

QUICK CLEANING
Option 1: Rinse extractor out with cold water from a hose. If available, a pressure washer is very effective. Empty excess water to prevent possible surface rust.
Option 2: Place open extractor next to hive. Bees will clean it out and use the materials.
IN-DEPTH CLEANING
Disassemble extractor (see Disassembly instructions). Using mild dish soap and warm water, scrub drum and basket clean. Completely rinse the parts and dry with a soft cloth. Reassemble the extractor when dry.

CARE

  • When not in use, store the extractor in a dry place. Although stainless steel is highly resistant to rust and corrosion, light surface rust can form in wet conditions.
  • If surface rust forms, clean with a light abrasive to remove rust.
  • The gearhead is permanently sealed and requires no maintenance.
  • Always set the dial to 0 when not in use to avoid sudden starts when next plugged in and make sure the emergency stop button is fully engaged.
