First off the triggering of a SawStop brake does not require a repair.
It is designed to have the brake trigger and to be removed and replaced

If you are getting your finger in the blade four times per day
triggering the saw stop, you are the person this thing is designed for.
I would suggest you stop and read the safety manual and pay more
attention to what you are doing when around a saw of any kind.

Most of us have been using table saws for many years, some have never
got their finger in the blade. Some like me have only got a finger
against the blade once in 50 years. In that case a saw stop would have
only complicated the problem, as it was a STUPID mistakes. I cut the
finger on the blade and did not cut it off.

I've had a couple of nasty cuts off my saw. Of course it wasn't
running either time. SS wouldn't have helped, though it wouldn't have
cost a cartridge, either.
