If you don't want to pay for the added safety of a magnetic switch then
something like this would work:

How would you install one of these switches ie. the paddle switch?


That switch is supposed to fit normal electrical boxes, so the simplest
is probably to mount an electrical box under the table at a suitable
location. Worst-case, you can drill/tap the cast iron to accept some
bolts, or there might be a way to use existing holes--hard to tell
without looking at the saw. You'll probably need to use a spacer or
bracket of some sort to mount the box so that the switch has enough
clearance to fasten to the box.
