InstructionsStep 1: Slot the NUC entrance reducer into the base, just behind the entrance, like you would a mouse guard. Step 2 (optional): Secure the reducer in place with a screw. (screw size: #6, 1", flat head, zinc - not included). Center screw is all that's needed. Step 3: Place the deep hive body on the base. Step 4: Insert the divider into the deep hive body, making sure it slots securely into the channel of the entrance reducer. The tapered end should face the back to ensure the divider sits flush with the floor. Step 5: Add frames of bees, brood, and honey to each side of the divider to create a new colony. Step 6: Place the lid on top and secure the hive using a strap or hive weight. Storage instructions: When not in use, keep divider covered and out of theweather to prevent warping and delamination.
