Investigation Summary
On November 28, 1998, Employee #1, a machinist, along with a coworker, was installing the outer race of a bearing on a mandrel approximately 20 inches in diameter. While pushing the outer race with the overhead crane and supporting it with a sling, the bearing slid too fast, pinching Employee #1's right little finger between the bearing and the seal. His finger tip was crushed and amputated. He was hospitalized for his injury.
