Investigation Summary
On January 16, 2006, Employee #1, a carpenter with a cabinet manufacturer, was using an abrasive planer/sander. This enclosed, vertical sander had a fixed guard located at the feed end conveyor. While feeding two wood pieces (each approximately 10-in.-square), one piece became misdirected. When Employee #1 reached for this piece, his right middle finger became caught between the piece and the guard. Employee #1 was hospitalized for an amputation of the finger. There were no witnesses. The machine was properly guarded and employer training records were available.
