Employee crushes finger while operating hydraulic cart lifte

At 8:45 a.m. on March 5, 2021, an employee was operating the Perkins brand Hydraulic Cart Lifter, Model No. D6080-27k, with his right hand and using the left hand to "sweep" recyclables around the hopper. While performing this task, the employee's left little finger became caught between the cart tipper's faceplate and the hopper's upper sill, resulting in severe crushing injuries. The employee's finger was later surgically amputated. Hospitalization was not required.
