Investigation Summary
At 10:15 a.m. on July 6, 2018, an employee was adjusting the brakes on a lawnmower while it was running. The employee bent down to look for an adjusting nut that was underneath and slid his hand near the actuating arm rod of the shears. The employee stepped on the pedal and the arm moved, pinching his finger against the frame of the machine. The employee amputated his left thumb and was hospitalized.
