Employee Loses Fingers in Table Saw Accident

On April 12, 2012, Employee #1 was working as a carpenter for a Recreation and Parks Department. Employee #1 was making a drawer out of a piece of thick plywood, using a table saw. The table saw had been retrofitted with a blade hood without anti kick back device or spreader. Employee #1 was making a quarter inch mark, by using dado blades and a dado insert. Employee #1 had placed the fence to the left of the stacked blades. Employee #1 had both hands on the workpiece, pushing the piece through the stacked dado blades. Employee #1 was not using a feather board, jig, push stick or any other device to keep his hands away from the running blades. While halfway through the first rabbet cut, the board swiveled toward the blade set, cutting three fingers on his left hand. Employee #1 suffered amputation injuries of his left third and fourth distal phalanges but his fifth finger injury did not result in bone loss. Employee #1 wss hospitalized for several dasy and then released.
