Abstract: At 7:45 a.m. on February 4, 2017, an employee was cleaning coating tracks inside coding machine #8 (Crabtree 1988/1989; model Fast Ready; S# F5948). The employee had noticed that there was a sheet that was stuck and proceeded to take steps to remove the sheet. The employee stopped the machine and removed the pan. In the process, the employee spilled paint and then began to clean up the spill. After the sheet was removed, the employee ran four recycled sheets through to assess if the machine was clean and ready for normal runs. The sheet came out with paint on the back area signaling the operator the machine required some additional cleaning. The employee stuck his hand into the machine while it was running. The employee's hand was caught in the rollers and his left index, middle and ring finger were partially amputated.
