Inductions run on the first Saturday of the month and take about ninety minutes. They are free, they are not optional, and they do not expire.
The unit sits in a mixed yard, so extraction runs whenever the woodworking side is in use and the roller shutter stays down after 19:00. If you are cutting anything with a resin content, say so at the counter — the filters get changed on a schedule and we would rather know.
Hearing protection and eye protection are on the wall by the entrance. Use them.
