Investigation Summary
At approximately 9:00 a.m. on October 18, 1990, Employee #1 was assembling a rotary drilling table when the top flange started to bind as he was tightening the flange nuts and bolts. He was using a 3 lb hammer to tap the top flange to free the bound parts when a metal chip flew from the inner bearing, bounced off the inner steel case, and struck him in the right eye. Employee #1 was hospitalized with a laceration and rupture of his eye. He later said he had removed his safety glasses to be able to see his work better.
