DO not wear any loose clothing, feel free to stop anyone using the tool with baggy sleeves or jumpers, hoodies with tassels or drawstrings. Wear hearing protection and a dust mask in use, connect the exhaust port to one of the vacuum dust collectors available in the workshop.
Make provision for supporting the work as it passes through the machine, either mate to collect the timber on the far side or outfeed supports.
