Tips for using the dry canner

We have a dry canner in our ward building now. (I am the one to call if you want to use it.) It weighs about 60 pounds, so be aware of that. One woman cannot lift it alone. When you get it, the two sticks will be screwed into the base, as shown in this picture.

Sticks screwed into the base, for transporting and storing.

You need to unscrew them both, and screw them into the holes at the top of the machine before using it.

Sticks in proper position for canning.
