Employee's fingers injured when caught in forklift mast

The employer was using a Champ forklift to lift Employee #1 approximately 7 ft on a plywood platform nailed to the forks. Employee #1 was engaged in concrete finishing on some pillars. While lowering Employee #1, the operator tilted the mast back and Employee #1 lost his balance. When he grabbed the mast, his fingers became caught between the chain and sprocket and his fingertips were amputated. The platform was not the proper type and there was no guard between Employee #1 and the mast.
