very carefully LOL
my hammie was not tame when I got her and she even bit me a couple times in the first couple weeks, but you should still pick her up and get her used to it. don't let her know you're scared, but don't be too pushy, either. It's a friendship you're trying to foster, so remember that things are give and take.

sammer pastic cage??
i've no idea what that is. but u can try to tilt the cage's entrance to align it with the actual cage's entrance
give him time to roam around the cage.. to settle down and mark his scent
u can attempt to handle him later

The best way to be able to hold your hamster is to pick up the hamster bedding from the cage and get the scent on your hands. This might sound a little strange, but the hamster shouldn't be as afraid of you as before. If your afraid of them biting you, wrap them up in your shirt (with room to breathe) and talk to them in a gental calming voice. The more time you spend with you hammy, the better friends you two will become.
