Investigation Summary
At 4:30 p.m. on July 1, 2020, an employee was operating a Formax F-26, hamburger patty forming machine when he attempted to clear a hamburger patty from the moving molding plate on the output side of the machine. The machine was guarded on the top side of the unit, but was missing two shuttle guards. When the employee reached under the plate to knock down the patty, the tip of his right middle finger was amputated. The employee was hospitalized for his injury.
