Investigation Summary
On September 21, 2007, Employee #1, an apprentice carpenter, was using a right-angle drill to install interior MDO wall sheathing. He was in a scissor lift and remained there while he tried to change the drill bit without unplugging the tool from the power source. After inserting the chuck key, the drill shifted in his hands and the lever-trigger was depressed, energizing the drill. Employee #1's right index finger became caught between the drill head and the chuck key, resulting in crushing injuries, for which he was treated and released.
