Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001A Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.213(i)(1): Non-working portion(s) of the blade of bandsaw(s) were not enclosed or guarded: (a) Facility, 30 Curry Avenue, Canonsburg, PA: On or about June 6, 2019 approximately 1 1/2 inches of the non-working portion of the blade on the band saw was not guarded to prevent contact during cutting operations. The guard rests on the fence and can only be adjusted down to approximately 3 1/8 inches above the table. An employee was cutting a pin that was to be approximately 1 1/4 inches wide by 6 1/2 inches long from a block of wood approximately 1 1/2 inches thick and 7 1/2 by 7 1/2 inches square. The employee was cutting the piece when it "jumped" and their right pointer finger made contact with the blade. The employee sustained an amputation of the right pointer finger to the second knuckle.
