Raku OH&S: Foot-ware
Wear strong footwear in case you drop red-hot objects.

If the gas goes out
Never leave the kiln unattended while firing; If the burner goes out, allow plenty of time for unburnt gas to disperse before re-igniting the burner.

Ensure that the area around the kiln is clear of debris.

Always dampen the sawdust to prevent excessive flame and lessen the risk of airborne burning particles.
