Employee's hand contacts anvil chuck and two fingers are amp

At 12:00 p.m. on April 13, 2017, an employee was replacing the stripping pin of a pin cylinder. After stopping the machine by its controls and removing the machine guard, the employee placed his left hand on the frame of the machine, near the anvil chuck, and used his right hand to operate the handle that controlled the amount of air on the anvil chuck. During the maintenance, the anvil chuck came into contact with the employee's third and fourth fingers on his left hand. The tips of those fingers were amputated as a result.
