Investigation Summary
On November 23, 1992, Employee #1 and a coworker, of Delta Lithograph, were "hanging" or installing printing plates on unit #1 of the Harris V15A press. The coworker was installing a plate on the lower cylinder and Employee #1 was "hanging" a plate on the upper cylinder. Employee #1 was standing to the right of the cylinder, opposite to the controls. The coworker was on the left side of the cylinder, operating the control buttons. The power to the press was on and the coworker was using the inch button to move the cylinder. Employee #1 used both hands to place the plate into the first slot of the cylinder and then released his right hand as the cylinder was inched by the coworker. Employee #1 continued to hold the plate with his left hand and it was pulled into the press between the plate cylinder and the blanket cylinder. Employee #1 suffered injuries to his middle, ring, and little fingers and was hospitalized for surgery from November 23, 1992 to November 26, 1992.
