Be sure your table saw is tuned up properly. Blade aligned to miter slot and fence lined up to the blade and miter slot.

Don't ever come near the blade with your fingers when the saw is turned on. This means using a push stick or a crosscut sled.

Always use a push stick and never force something through the blade… if there is some resistance when cutting, determine why before proceeding.

... oh and always wear eye protection.

After completing a cut on the table saw, never pull your pieces back toward you. Push both pieces pass the blade, turn off the saw and wait for the blade to stop before removing both pieces.

Never stand directly behind the piece of wood that you're cutting. Stand off to the side
If it kicks back, you don't want to be in the flight path.

Don't be afraid of the saw, but use every safety precaution at your disposal with great respect for the power of the tool.

Keep the fence between you and the blade. Reach over it with a push stick. Any kickback will not hit your body.

Spend some time with a trusted table saw user. It could be a friend, relative or professional instructor.

There is nothing like that immediate feedback.

I unplug mine when changing blades, and always have the blade height no higher the 1/8" above the thickness of the board I am cutting. I also periodically clean and wax the table surface so the piece slides more smoothly. Oh, and not touching that spinning thingie helps too.

Be sure to read, understand & follow all safety precautions in the manual. Remember to always wear these, safety glasses. (said in my best Norm voice!!!)

Read the manual…
Properly adjust (& maintain) the saw…
Use a sharp blade…
If it feels wrong/unsafe, it IS wrong/unsafe…
read, understand & follow the wisdom, contained within, Hendrik's second DVD course called "Revelations on Table Saw Set-up & Safety".

Even though it has already been said, always turn off the saw at the first sign of fatigue! Sometimes it is hard to tell when fatigue or tiredness starts to set in. Usually when I start to get tired I start making mistakes, like having to make the same cut several times to get it right. No matter what your deadline is or how close to finishing the project, it simply is not worth it. My neighbor nearly lost a hand trying to finish the last two pieces of one his projects. Stay safe.

Safety is always 1st priority, safety glasses, hearing protection, dust collection, etc. Learn the how's and how-to's of your saw/equipment is operated. Keep it tuned. Keep the surface clean and slick. This is more than one, but, I feel you need to do all of these before plugging it in/giving it life.
