Abstract: On July 1, 2003, Employee #1, a welder of Grimmway Farms, was using a steel plate rolling machine. He was rolling the plate into half round saddles when his glove got caught in the rollers. Employee #1's finger tip was crushed. The machine had a constant contact operating device; however, the rollers continued to move about 1 to 1.5 revolutions more after the switch was disengaged. The employee was taken to Southern CA Orthopedic, where he was treated and released after his finger tip was surgically amputated.
