Abstract: At 10:30 a.m. on January 27, 2017, an employee was working for a manufacturing company that specializes in the production of metal walls and roof panels for commercial buildings. While cutting 2 inch by 4 inch wood boards intended for the packaging and shipping of roof panels, the employee's left hand contacted the blade of a horizontal pull saw (model number: RN 900FM). His left thumb and index finger were amputated, which he was hospitalized and underwent surgery for reattachment. The incident investigation revealed that the saw did not have a safety guard installed.
