Investigation Summary
On the afternoon of November 5, 1986, Employee #1 was using a cloth to clean excess ink buildup from the dam roller on a printing press. The rag was folded into a tight square that was saturated with alcohol. Apparently, the form rollers, which are located above the dam rollers, ensnared his T-shirt and then his hair, pulling him toward the rotating rollers. Employee #1 then shoved himself away from the press and landed on the floor, not realizing that his thumb had been caught in the rollers and amputated.
