Investigation Summary
At 7:00 p.m. on November 5, 2019, Employee #1 was loading pieces of lumber into a "Chamfer Machine". This machine removes the 90 degree corners on the edge of the lumber to give it a rounded appearance. As the employee loaded a piece of lumber into the Chamfer Machine, his left middle finger became pinched between the piece of lumber and the machine structure, because the lumber was not directly lined up with the machine feed opening. He sustained a partial amputation to his left middle fingertip.
