Investigation Summary
At 9:00 a.m. on September 6, 2018, an employee was building a load of lumber to fill an order and had placed two boards onto a Whirlwind Model 216 under hung swing cut-off saw and conveyor. The employee leaned over to grab the end of the board to square it up on the saw, inadvertently pressed the foot operated pedal for the saw, and struck his left hand against the saw blade. The employee amputated his index, middle, and ring fingers and was hospitalized.
