Beekeeping Electric Wiring Embedder - Wax Foundation to Wired Frames Assembly Tool

This tool is designed to slightly melt a line of beeswax along the wires of frames and then reset. This effectively embeds the wire into wax foundation using a *12V DC electric power supply to heat the wires and then bond firmly between the foundation and frame wiring.

Function
To use, press the wire onto the wax foundation using the 4 copper protrusions and then by pressing the switch button located towards the end of the embedder, apply current which will heat up the wire. Press for a short period, just enough to melt the wax, allowing the wire to merge into the wax foundation. Pulsing (pressing up and down quickly) the button can help prevent over-heating and melting all the way through the foundation. Once the foundation has melted onto the wire, release the switch and keep the embedder in place a few seconds longer for the wax to solidify. When the wax has solidified and cooled, the frame is ready to be placed in the hive.

ACCESSORIES
*The transformer to provide the 12V DC power source is sold separately.
