Investigation Summary
On October 15, 2002, Employee #1 was working at a window manufacturing facility, using a Delta 12-inch table saw to cut strips of corrugated cardboard. As he operated the saw, some of the material began to kick back, and Employee #1's right hand was pulled into the rotating blade. His right index finger was amputated and his other three fingers were mangled. There were no blade protection or kickback prevention devices (i.e., hood blade guard, material spreader, or anti-kickback fingers) in place.
