Investigation Summary
At 9:50 p.m. on January 19, 2022, an employee was assisting a coworker with unjamming a pre-breaker. His coworker was turning the motor belts to manipulate the shaft by hand. When the shaft stopped turning, the employee reached in to remove a blockage and his coworker began to turn the shaft again. The cutter on the end of the shaft pinched the employee's finger, resulting in the amputation of the end of his finger. The employee was treated without hospitalization.
