Investigation Summary
At 9:00 p.m. on August 25, 2017, Employee #1 reached under a portable power washing machine to retrieve a dropped tool. When doing so, the machine was inadvertently activated and an unguarded drive belt began rotating. The employee's left pinky finger became caught in the in-running nip point on the drive belt, and it was amputated. Employee #1 was hospitalized for his injury.
