Incident on Jul 3, 1986: Employee injures fingers in power press

Employee #1 was operating a full revolution power press without point of operati on guarding. He would hold the piece being offset with his right hand, activate the press with an electric foot trip, and then use his left hand to retrieve the next part to be stamped. It appears that the employee stamped a part and was re moving it when he inadvertently tripped the press again. All four fingers of his right hand were amputated. The little and ring fingers were amputated at the se cond knuckle; the ends of the middle and index fingers were reattached.
