A small extractor that takes a few frames at a time turns a big harvest into a weekend of loading, spinning and flipping frames. A \u003cstrong\u003eradial extractor\u003c\/strong\u003e works differently: the frames sit in the basket like spokes, so the honey is thrown out of \u003cstrong\u003eboth faces of the comb at once\u003c\/strong\u003e and there is \u003cstrong\u003eno flipping\u003c\/strong\u003e. This one holds \u003cstrong\u003e24 frames\u003c\/strong\u003e, so a whole super or two goes through in a single run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a \u003cstrong\u003emotor-driven radial extractor\u003c\/strong\u003e with a \u003cstrong\u003e220V, 550W horizontal motor\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003evariable speed\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003ereversible rotation\u003c\/strong\u003e. The barrel is \u003cstrong\u003e201 stainless steel\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003e97cm across and 75cm high\u003c\/strong\u003e, with a \u003cstrong\u003e304 stainless steel inner basket\u003c\/strong\u003e measuring \u003cstrong\u003e42cm x 26cm\u003c\/strong\u003e. The motor does the spinning, so you can keep uncapping the next batch while a load runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Radial for 24 Frames\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn a tangential extractor you spin one side of each frame, stop, flip and spin the other. A radial basket holds the frames with the top bars facing out, and honey leaves both sides of the comb together in one pass. That halves the handling and puts less stress on fresh comb, which matters when a frame is heavy and delicate. The large barrel gives the honey plenty of room to run down the walls to the bottom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Speed and Reversible Motor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVariable speed\u003c\/strong\u003e lets you start slowly while the frames are full and heavy, then build up as the honey comes out, which helps protect the comb from blowing out. The motor is also \u003cstrong\u003ereversible\u003c\/strong\u003e, so you can spin the basket in the other direction to clear the cells more completely before you unload.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHoney Gate and Easy Assembly\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA \u003cstrong\u003evalve is fitted as the honey gate\u003c\/strong\u003e, so honey runs straight into a bucket or filter at the end of a run. Assembly is simple: three stainless steel legs fix to a holder under the barrel using \u003cstrong\u003elarge black screws\u003c\/strong\u003e that are easy to tighten. The kit includes the main barrel with motor, 3 legs, 6 screws, the holder, the valve, 2 lids and spare L-type screws.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLooking After It\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWash the barrel and basket with water and food-safe cleaner before first use, and clean and dry the extractor before storing with the lid on in a dry place. \u003cstrong\u003eUnplug it before cleaning and keep water away from the motor and controls.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDo not bump the barrel\u003c\/strong\u003e when moving it, since a dent can make the inner basket run unevenly, catch on the wall or let honey leak. Keep the spare parts somewhere safe, keep the lid closed while the basket is spinning, and keep children away from the extractor while it is in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs Electric the Right Choice\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn electric extractor suits sideline and small commercial beekeepers, and hobbyists with enough hives that hand-cranking 24 frames at a time becomes hard work. It needs a power supply where you extract, so it is best set up in a shed or honey room. If you only have a hive or two, or you extract at a site without power, a smaller manual extractor may suit you better.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstruction Manual\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStep-by-step assembly, care and storage instructions are in the manual: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1UPU76i7txWFBnoZ4FkK4zgnHI39ox9fs\/view?usp=sharing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDownload the 12 or 24 Frame Honey Extractor Manual (PDF)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.
