The accident occurred when Employee #1 removed a cutting guard that had a magnetic interlock device and placed a small magnet in place of the guard. That operation by-passed the purpose of the guard and allowed the machine to continue to run. After by-passing the guard, Employee #1 reached into the machine to remove debris while the machine was running. This action resulted in an amputation of 0.5 in. of Employee #1's third finger on his right hand.
