For generally smoother cuts with less splintering, lower the blade until it is just a few millimetres

side pressure finger.
Never reach over or behind a spinning blade.
accidents occur when reaching over an unguarded or
poorly guarded blade to remove off-cuts. Push off-cuts away
with a stick, or switch off and wait until the blade has
stopped spinning before removing them.
Always use the safety guard when through ripping.
Position the guard support at least 12mm behind the blade
at all times. The guard acts as a "splitter" and a "hold-down",
to prevent the wood from flinging towards you. Lower the
guard so the anti-kickback fingers are lightly flexed.
Always use the rip fence or protractor.

fling the wood towards you with great force if you twist it
even slightly during the cut.
Always set the fence parallel to the blade,
securely at both ends. You must never angle the fence to
the blade for rip cuts.

If uncontrolled, this piece could get damaged by the side of
the blade, or be flung out towards you - especially with short
workpieces. Use the pushstick rather than your fingers,
unless you have good hand access between the fence and
the guard.
To rip a 70mm piece down to 60mm, it's much safer and
more accurate to set the fence at 60mm, and have the offcut
fall harmlessly aside,

Always wear eye & ear protection.
