Investigation Summary
At approximately 2:00 a.m. on February 14, 2017, Employee #1 was cleaning 50/50 trim extruders on its lower side. The equipment was locked out using supervisor control. The control system involved a supervisor locking out the auger and then the employee locking out the supervisors controls, which created a check and balance lockout system. During the cleaning process, Employee #1 requested the equipment be unlocked to run briefly. He removed his lock and his supervisor removed the lock under his control. As his supervisor turned on the equipment, Employee #1 stuck his finger into a drain port on the auger and amputated his right index finger. Employee #1 received medical treatment on his amputated finger.
