* Understand what [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7sRrC2Jpp4 kickback] is, and take precautions to avoid it
* The table saw makes a lot of sawdust which can quickly become a slipping hazard. Be sure to stop and sweep/vacuum the floor around as necessary
* Use the saw with all safety devices (blade guard, riving knife, anti-kickback pawl) in place as much as possible, and use a pair of push sticks for when ripping stock narrower than 6" wide.
* Do not rip pieces shorter than about 12” long, nor pieces so narrow they are at risk of falling through the throat plate.
==Training==
Training on the table saw consists of two parts - an online module via google classrooms which must be completed first, followed by an in-person training session. Training covers the basics of table saw usage, including the following:
* Ripping a piece of wood with safety devices in place
* Removing blade guard, riving knife, and anti-kickback pawl.
* Cross cutting a piece of wood with the cross-cut sled or mitre gauge
* Re-installing blade guard, riving knife and anti-kickback pawl.
