Make sure to locate your seamer in a position
that has enough space to move around it
easily. Also, make sure to pay attention to
things like long hair, loose clothing, etc.
as the can will be spinning and can cause
injury if anything gets caught on or around
it. Be careful to not reach into the machine
or remove the cover at any time while it is
plugged in! Canning is done in a wet envi-
ronment, so always plug the seamer into a
GFCI outlet to avoid shocking hazards.
Safety First!
Seaming
Seaming is simple, and after a few practice cans it should be a
smooth, continuous process. It helps to go through the steps
without a can a few times to get a feel for it. The force
required to actually seam a can is not much more than it takes
to run the seamer without a can.
