Investigation Summary
At approximately 4:20 p.m. on May 28, 2013, Employee #1 and two coworkers were moving a Factory Cat Floor Sweeper, Model Number 29, from storage in a metal shipping container. One of the coworkers had previously helped put the sweeper inside the container and informed one of the managers. As soon as this manager walked away, Employee #1 and the two coworkers started to move the sweeper out of the container, with Employee #1 and one of the coworkers pulling the front (walking backwards), and the other coworker pushing. After the sweeper was moved out of the container far enough, it tipped forward to touch the ground, which was 4 in. below the floor of the container. Employee #1 had been pulling the sweeper with his left middle finger inside of a D-ring about the skirt of the sweeper. When the sweeper hit the ground, the skirt moved up and pinched his finger between the D-ring and the top of the skirt, amputating it. Employee #1 was transported to a medical center, where he received treatment and was then released.
