Investigation Summary
At 11:50 a.m. on September 11, 2018, an employee was aligning the baler head after changing from 10 inch to 8 inch head. The employee had his left hand in the machine attempting to tighten a bolt and his right hand on the controls when he inadvertently cycled the machine. The employee's finger was caught between a bolt and a limiting switch, resulting in an amputation of the tip of his left index finger. Hospitalization was not required.
