Abstract: At 8:00 a.m. on January 9, 2017, Employee #1 was using a Powermatic belt/disc sander, Model number 31A, to sand metal parts for a shipment that needed to go out. The employee raised the metal part in order to use a higher point of contact on the abrasive wheel. When the metal part touched the abrasive wheel, it was pulled down towards the table, catching his right glove in the belt/disc sander. Employee #1 sustained lacerations to two fingers along with an amputation of the tip of his left thumb.
