Employee Suffers Amputation Using Band Saw

Employee #1 had just been trained on the DoAll C916M band saw. Employee #1 was assigned to cut "Z-shape" metal parts with the band saw. The piece of metal was 10 in. wide. Employee #1 had just started the cut and the coolant was accumulating on the material. Employee #1 reached into the saw near the blade to move the coolant away. Employee #1's hand struck the moving blade and suffered the amputation of a finger. Employee #1 was wearing gloves at the time of the accident, but it is not certain that the wearing of the glove played a part in the accident. The employer's policy is to wear gloves at all times when material handling, but the manufacturer has a warning not to wear gloves while operating the saw. Employee #1 was hospitalized.
