I use to teach high school kids how to use them. If those 15-17 years old can do it you can too. I suggest two things:

1, Get a negative hook blade to keep saw from climbing on the stock. Meaning it would jump onto or come at you unexpectedly and you must hold on to the handle firmly to control the saw. Negative hook blade will prevent a lot of that from happenning.

2, Make sure you push the stock up against the fence (back ) to keep the stock from flying when the saw blade hits the material.

I learn how to use one around the age of 15 in my old high school woodshop.
