This is pretty common on most sliders, you turn the saw on first then load then cut. This is the way I did it for many years in my business and when I worked for others it is only with my ne k940 that I ponied up the $700ish for the on off on the end of slide which I never use¡old habits die hard¡

?There's only one Power On switch on the Hammer, and it is indeed located on the "wrong" side of the blade.? If you're cutting a large sheet of plywood, or anything else that gets in the way of you leaning over the sliding table to turn on the saw, then your only option really is to crawl under the table as you said.? Walking around the front of the sliding table is also an option, but depending on the size of the piece you're trying to cut you might still have to crawl under the piece to get to the switch.? I don't do a whole lot of work with large plywood sheets, so 99% of the time I am able to just lean over the sliding table to turn on the saw.
There is technically a second Power Off switch on the side of course: the "emergency" stop switch, which I've only used a couple times.
