Investigation Summary
Employee #1, an apprentice carpenter, was working on the first floor of a framing project at single-family, two-story home. He was using a portable Worm Drive circular saw, model HD77, with a 7 1/4 in. diameter blade to saw the end of a stud when the saw pinched into wood and backed up toward him. His left thumb was amputated above the first joint. Employee #1 was using a saw with a defective guard; the automatic return action was not working, which allowed his thumb to contact the saw blade.
