Abstract: At approximately 4:00 a.m. on April 17, 2001, three employees were installing a plate on a printing press (Offset Lithographic Press, Horizon, a product of Dev Industries, Serial Number 5001-1272). The assistant crew leader was watching Employee #1 while Employee #1 was installing the plate in the in running rollers of the press and a coworker was controlling the press by pushing an inching button. The coworker was on the other side of the unit. Just before the accident, Employee #1 had the plate in his hands and was trying to feed the plate into the in-running rollers. As the coworker pushed the inching button, Employee #1's left hand was pulled in to the in-running rollers and his left middle and ring finger were smashed and tips of the finger were amputated. Employee #1 was treated at the hospital and released the same day.
