Investigation Summary
At approximately 2:00 p.m. on February 21, 2005, Employee #1, with Carlton Forge Works, was working in a forging shop near a 2,500-lb gravity hammer.

During the down stroke, a punch piece became dislodged from its case and struck Employee #1's left leg. He was hospitalized for treatment of a fractured leg. At the time Employee #1 was wearing adequate personal protective equipment, including eye protection, a hard hat, and heat-resistant clothing.
