That depends on how hot it is. If it is just a little too hot, it might be enough just to wear gloves or use a cloth to hold it. The cloth must be a bad conductor of heat and thick enough to make sure that too little heat gets through to hurt you. The cloth also must not melt or burn at that temperature.
If it is much hotter, like a chunk of white-hot metal, say in making an axe-head, you will need suitable tools with long handles so that you do not get hurt by the heat that shines out of it (we say that such a chunk radiates enough heat to hurt you).
Still hotter material, such as large amounts of molten metal or glass, need to be handled behind shields that protect you from the radiation, splashes, and other accidents as well ans just touching the hot things.

How would you summarize what sort of materials are insulators and which are conductors?
Conductors are usually made of metals. The reason why the handle of a metal spoon gets hot in a hot bowl of soup is because metal is a conductor of heat. Insulators are usually made of materials such as styrofoam, plastic, and paper. That is why when you buy a cup of coffee at a cafe it is given to you in a paper cup.
