Place an empty hive body on the hive above the inner cover.  Cover the inside hole so that only space for a bee or two to get through at one time.  Then place the frames in that empty body and put the outer cover on.  Bees should rob the frames out within a day or two, temperatures permitting.

Mike in LA where temps were in the low 90's today.
