The employee placed his left hand in the danger zone and came in contact with the blades. There was no immediate supervisor and employee was experienced in operating the machine. The machine was not properly guarded. The employee was hospitalized to treat an amputated hand. Due to the employer's quick response, the employee has gained 99% recovery with full movement to his hand no bone loss or permanent amputation.
