• Always use the dust collection system, always make sure the baffle for the dust collection system is set to open
• Use appropriate safety equipment - safety push sticks (http://lifehacker.com/5979200/diy-push-sticks-provide-extra-safety-when-using-a-table-saw/all), safety glasses, ear protection, appropriate clothing
