Abstract: Employee #1 and a coworker were adjusting a 500-ton part revolution mechanical power press and were running parts. This was a two-operator press with two stations. The press was put in the inch mode at one station, and at the second operator's station, the two-hand trip was inactive. The coworker activated the press while Employee #1 had his hand in the point of operation, attempting to remove a stamped part. The press barely caught his fingers, causing abrasions and contusions. Employee #1 was told to stand back during the operation and possibly did not hear the instruction.
