Employee amputates fingertip when caught between chain and s

At 10:30 p.m. on January 9, 2021, a PM Tech was conducting preventative maintenance on the glass line 2 washer. The employee was in the process of lubricating a bearing, when the grease gun slipped off the fitting, and the employee's finger contacted the chain that was running, causing his finger to be caught between the chain and sprocket. The employee suffered a fingertip amputation on his left-hand middle finger. The employee was treated without hospitalization.
