Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was using a 10 in. long Skilsaw table saw to rip a series of 3/4 in. deep dado cuts in the end of a 2 by 4 board to make a 1 in. wide notch. He was pushing the board through the table saw when his right hand contacted the blade, lacerating three of his fingers. Employee #1 was taken to the hospital, where his ring finger was surgically removed. The saw was not equipped with an anti-kickback device during ripping, nor was Employee #1 using a push stick to feed the stock through the saw. Employee #1 was not using a hood during ripping, a class B requirement, because the nature of the dado cuts he was making led to the wood hitting the mount on the back of the table, making it impossible to complete the job.
