Event: 12/08/2011
Employee's Finger Is Amputated While Operating Lathe

At approximately 10:00 a.m. on December 8, 2011, Employee #1, with Imperial Irrigation District, was at a machine shop operating a self-centering metal lathe (16 in. Lodge & Shipley Metal Lathe, Serial Number 39483, Employer Machine Identification Number 1818) to cut threads on the end of a 1-in.-diameter metal rod. He was wearing leather gloves. When the rod began vibrating during rotation, Employee #1 used his left hand to apply pressure on the rod to dampen the vibration and obtain a clean cut. His left glove became caught on the rod and pulled his index finger in. Employee #1 was hospitalized at UCSD Medical Center for an amputation of the finger and other injuries to his middle and ring fingers.
