Pipefitter Amputates Fingertip on Portable Bandsaw

At approximately 1:45 p.m. on November 12, 2009, Employee #1 was working as a pipefitter for a heavy construction firm. Employee #1 was attempting to remove a Milwaukee Model Number 6236 portable bandsaw that had become jammed in a 2.5-inch-diameter steel pipe. He was lifting the bandsaw from the workpiece, when his left gloved hand accidentally came into contact with the bandsaw blade just as he activated the tool's trigger with his right hand. The tip of the index finger on his left hand was amputated.
