Employee using vacum machine amputates fingers

On November 13, 2001, an employee was turf vacuuming on the Rogue Valley Country Club when the Gravely Vacuum machine he was using clogged. The employee idled the vacuum engine down, but left it running. He then opened the rear compartment door and placed his hand inside the chute to remove a clog. The employee stuck his fingers between the moving fan blade and the sheet metal housing, amputating the three middle fingers at the middle knuckle and lacerating the thumb and little finger.
