Investigation Summary
On July 25, 2013, Employee #1 was using a meat cutting band saw manufactured by Hobart Corp, (Model Number 6801, Serial Number 31-1442-963). The employee was slicing a chicken leg quarter along its length using a pusher plate to hold the chicken parts against the gauge plate. Employee #1 stated the sliding guard was adjusted properly down to the top of the meat, but he did not know how his finger came in contact with the blade. Employee #1 amputated his right index finger at its first digit. The employee was taken to an area hospital, where surgery was performed on his amputated finger. Employee #1 was later released.
