The real:
posted: 3:10 pm on December 6th---------
Wear safety glasses, hearing protection and respirator as appropriate
Correctly use the fence, miter gauge, blade configuration, splitter/riving knife and blade guard depending on the cut you need to make
Position your body and hands correctly to maintain a safe distance from the blade and to stay out of the line of fire
Do not operate a tablesaw (or any other machine) if under the influence of alcohol or other drugs or if you are tired
The silly:
----------
Do not operate a tablesaw in the dark or with your eyes closed, or while wearing in-line skates, or in the nude, or standing on ice, or in the pouring rain, or in a moving vehicle, or on a steep grade, or with the saw on its side or upside down, or in a room with a sleeping baby, or while eating an ice cream cone (No offense to those with vision impairments as it may well be possible for you to safely use a tablesaw)
