Investigation Summary
On August 3, 2001, Employee #1, a laborer in a small machine shop was forming small parts on a Hydra Power brand press brake. He was making bends in a small piece of aluminum, and says he got distracted and pinched the end of his right ring finger in the dies. Employee #1 was using a foot-operated control and the machine had no safeguards on it. Employee #1's injuries consisted only of losing his fingernail, which has subsequently grown back.
