Investigation Summary
At approximately 7:00 a.m. on November 25, 2002, Employee #1 was assisting a coworker replacing a cutting wire in a tortilla oven. While Employee #1 was holding the wire between two sprockets on the east side of oven, the coworker was tightening wires from the west side. After Employee #1 pushed the wire into place on a holding pin with his left hand, the coworker turned on the machine and the sprockets severed Employee #1's left thumb. The causes of the accident were failure to deenergize the machine during service, and failure to use extension tools.
