Investigation Summary
On May 8, 2013, Employee #1 of Eaton Hydraulics was working alone operating a Marvel #1 horizontal metal cutting band-saw, Model #15A/M1. Employee #1 was using the saw to cut an approximate 2" - 2.5" solid round shaft. The saw was set in automatic mode, Employee #1 had just removed the part that had been cut and placed it on/in a storage container. Employee #1 then turned back to the saw to retrieve another part. As he did this, an air hose became tangled and Employee #1 fell. As he was falling, he tried to catch himself and his right hand came in contact with the point of operation portion of the band saw blade resulting in the amputation of the middle finger of his right hand just behind the nail bed. The unused portion of the band saw blades were not guarded properly but did not have an effect on this accident.
