Investigation Summary

Investigation Nr: 201522711

Event: 07/19/2006

Employee Is Injured When Struck by Board

On July, 19, 2006, Employee #1 was operating a Brewco Grade Edger, Model Number B-4840. He inserted a board into the intake side to cut the board to a width of 6 in. When the board cleared the intake rollers, Employee #1 retrieved a second board from the output conveyer roller table of the Head Saw. As he inserted the second board into the intake side of the grade edger, another employee adjusted the width of the grade edger saw blades to make a 4-in. wide cut. However, the first board had not yet cleared the saw blades. The first board was pinched between the two blades and forced back out through the intake side of the machine. Employee #1 was injured when he was struck in the upper chest and face by the board. Employee #1 was hospitalized for unspecified fractures.
