RE: How to use a UMAT
If you mean the former then there is no way on God's green earth that this -- or any other -- forum will help you to the extent of providing a step by step procedure. Go speak to ABAQUS about it (and even by their own admission they don't fully understand them). If you mean the latter, then the ABAQUS documentation has a very good section on using UMATs.
