Investigation Summary
On September 3, 2003, Employee #1 was removing the engine from a Chrysler minivan in the service area of an automobile dealership. While a coworker was operating the hand jack on a NORCO foldable floor crane (Model Number 78106), the engine became stuck. When Employee #1 pushed the engine, it swung free and caught his right thumb between the engine and the van's body, amputating the thumb.
