Abstract: An articulated frame movable between a collapsed position and an extended position. A main wheel assembly is attached to the frame and movable between a support position where the main wheel assembly supports the frame and enables the asphalt seam heater to be towed behind a towing vehicle when the articulated frame is in the collapsed position, and a retracted position wherein the main wheel assembly does not support the frame. At least one asphalt heater of a defined configuration is disposed within and supported by the frame.
