Employees hang pieces of metal duct work on the lower wheel of the bead machine and guide the piece as it rotates slowly between the two metal wheels creating a bead mark. The bead machine is operated with a foot pedal. While guiding a piece of duct work the employee's glove got caught in the machine. The employee was hospitalized and suffered an amputation of the left middle finger.
