Abstract: At 2:30 a.m. on April 18, 2019, an employee was working for a firm that manufactured snack foods. He was cleaning the facility's masa process line with a high pressure water hose while the line was energized and cycling. As he was spraying near the pre-sheeter, he placed his hands into the machine to remove masa dough. The pre-sheeter's rotating blades caught his finger. He suffered an amputation to the middle finger on his left hand. He was hospitalized.
