I find myself checking all fingers are present and correct just viewing the photos.

I have seen that one too: looks terrifying and I would not have the courage to turn it on!

I think you'd also have to constantly need to remind yourself not to put the scrap below the table

Or let the dog in.....

I think you'd soon find out if the dog was in.

Buyer says "it works but needs sharpening", so perfectly safe then ....

Turn it on - and RUN

We have plenty of saws like that where I live. Used to cut firewood mostly.

This looks the stuff of nightmares. Imagine yourself strapped to a slow moving conveyor belt, legs akimbo and moving inexorably towards the blade with your head propped up so you dont miss any of the impending spectacle. Standing next to the conveyor is your vanquisher, dressed in his black suit with his short black goatee beard quivering whilst wringing his hands, as he is about to erupt in raucous laughter.
Oh sorry, I was looking for a cheapish 12"saw table.

That's why you have start/run capacitors.

I'll run, you start it!

Hello,
This is a log saw, for sawing branches to make logs. It is not usual for them to have saw guards. Once you get them working they do the job well and there is nothing to be alarmed about. I have had many in the past, as we lived in the woods. They are the perfect tool for the job often powered by your tractor. Some have a planking attachment so you can put a trunk on the bench and cut it lengthwise for planks. I still have all my fingers, there really is nothing to be afraid of,
Regards

Like the sentiment, just you got it the wrong way around !
