Investigation Summary
At 7:30 a.m. on September 4, 2020, an employee was cutting PVC pipe for a work order. The employee was using a DeWalt 12-inch double bevel compound miter saw (Model DW716) to cut a 1-1 1/2-inch section of a 3/4-inch diameter PVC pipe. The employee was not utilizing a clamp or other tool to hold the piece in place while the cut was being made. When the blade of the saw hit the PVC pipe, the piece of pipe spun while the employee was holding the piece. The employee's hand came into contact with the rotating saw blade. The employee amputated his left thumb and was treated without hospitalization.
