Abstract: At approximately 4:30 a.m. on February 15, 2005, Employee #1 was working at a woodworking facility which produced wooden parts for cabinets. He was cleaning the roll coat machine while it was running. He did not deenergize or disengage the power source prior to cleaning, so the rollers were still running. He was wearing a glove which was caught and pulled his left hand into the machine. His left index finger was crushed and had to be amputated.
