And a device to shut off if there's a flashback (I cannot remember the correct term, but it shuts power off if the guard comes in contact with some object). Additionally, on disc cutting courses and requal I was taught to check the speed of disk was sufficient for the output RPM. (Bit like checking that tyres on a car are rated above max speed of car).
