Employee's leg is amputated when caught in trencher blade

At 9:00 a.m. on February 1, 2018, Employee #1 and a coworker were engaged in trenching work at a residential construction site. The coworker was operating a trencher machine, Ditch Witch Trencher Model Number 5700DD H514. Employee #1 was signaling his coworker, who was attempting to get the trencher close to a fence. The trencher hit hard rock and bounced up. Employee #1 became entangled in the machine's rotating chain blade. Emergency services were called, and a trauma surgeon arrived and amputated Employee #1's leg onsite. Employee #1 was then flown to the local hospital for continuing treatment.
