Employee suffers amputation while sawing wood

At 10:15 a.m. on June 26, 2019, an employee was operating a DEWALT radial arm saw when he placed a piece of wood on the table against the fence and performed a cross cut. As the employee held the wood and attempted to pull the carriage, his right hand slipped and made contact with the front of the rotating blade. The employee suffered a partial amputation of his right ring finger. He was treated and discharged from a local hospital within ten hours.
