Investigation Summary
On July 10, 2002, Employee #1, a cut/line re-rip operator, was placing pieces of lumber through a saw to edge the lumber down to a specific width. The employee used a saw blade with two sets of anti-kickback fingers and a metal guard covering the saw blade area. A piece of the lumber blew into several small pieces. The saw guard met the proper requirements. One piece of wood came out of the saw, striking Employee #1 in his right forearm. Employee #1 received treatment at a hospital for a puncture wound in his right forearm and was released.
