Investigation Summary
Employee #1, of Micro Dot Press, Los Angeles, CA, was getting ready to start up a printing machine. He used his fingers to check the water reservoir for the form roller and the form rollers for wetness. He manually turned the roller a few times to saturate the impression (printing). At this point, the cylinder was turning without a metal graphic plate, which holds the design. The cylinder is 3/4 in. diameter with a 1/4 in. opening for mounting the design plate. While he was wetting down the form roller Employee #1's finger became caught in the opening and his left ring finger was sheared off.
