Employee amputates fingers when glove is caught in rollers

At approximately 9:30 a.m. on September 24, 1993, Employee #1 was operating a machine built in-house that forms spiral reinforcement steel for concrete columns. This machine forms the coils by using rollers to apply pressure to the steel rods, bending them into a large slinky-style coil. Employee #1 was feeding the steel rod into the machine when the glove on his left hand became caught in the in-running rolls. His hand was pulled into the rolls and his second and third fingers were amputated.
