Employee amputates finger grabbing at falling tracer unit

At 9:50 a.m. on May 15, 2021, an employee working as a machinist for an engineering service was placing a tracer unit on a tool post. The tracer unit was not aligned with the holes on the tool post. The employee attempted to rotate the tracer unit to align the holes by hand versus using the crane. As the employee unbolted the tracer unit, it started to slide off the post. The employee tried to stop it from falling when he cut his left ring finger on the shear point of the tracer unit and post. The employee received medical treatment without hospitalization for an amputated finger.
