Investigation Summary
At approximately 1:15 a.m. on August 28, 1990, Employee #1, a 27-year-old employee of SafeHit corporation who had been hired as an assembler on June 11, 1990, was working as a punch press operator manufacturing traffic sign anchor posts with a 65 ton Walsh press. He was using 15 gauge steel tubing 18 in. long and 2 1/2 in. in diameter. When an anchor piece became stuck in the press die's unguarded point of operation, Employee #1 inserted his gloved left hand to dislodge it. He activated the old full-revolution mechanical press, which punched holes in his hand. Employee #1's thumb, index, and middle finger were amputated.
