Investigation Summary
At approximately 7:00 a.m. on April 13, 2010, Employee #1, of Sierra Aluminum Company, was pulling aluminum logs (7-inch diameter by 14-feet length) from the casting pit. While using an overhead crane to move the final four logs, Employee #1 removed the separator bar that was spacing the logs. The aluminum logs shifted while suspended by the crane, catching Employee #1's finger between the bar and a table stand. He was hospitalized for an amputated distal portion of the index finger of his left hand.
