Incident on Dec 14, 2012: Mechanic amputates finger on bucket elevator chain

At approximately 3:40 p.m. on December 14, 2012, Employee #1, a 24-year-old male mechanic and welder with KMC was working along with three other mechanics and w ere assigned to repair the Tsubaki BHB600 5-BE-1 bucket elevator drive unit in t he finish mill area of the Mitsubishi Cement plant. Employee #1 had his finger i n a pinch point between the roller chain and the sprocket when double 160 size d rive chain on a sprocket advanced inward toward the sprocket amputating 0.5 in. tip off of his left index finger. The mine operator Mitsubishi Cement reported t he incident to the San Bernardino Mining and Tunneling unit office at approximat ely 4:30 p.m. During the course of the investigation it was determined that the use of heavy leather work gloves would have likely reduced the severity of injur y to Employee #1 but would not have prevented the incident.
