Investigation Summary
On March 1, 2011, Employee #1 was repairing a 2 in. PVC pipe approximately 10 ft above the floor in the covered feedlot area of a dairy farm. To access the pipe, a coworker lifted him in the rear bucket of a backhoe. While the bucket was raised, he lost his balance. As he steadied himself, he inadvertently placed his finger in the service hole on the backhoe arm. The hydraulic cylinder amputated Employee #1's finger as it passed by the hole. He was hospitalized at UCSF Medical Center for treatment.
