Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was operating an Ace strip cutter, model C75, serial #11349. The guard had broken some time earlier, but Employee #1 had not reported it and had continued to use the machine. When material became jammed in the cutter blade, Employee #1 attempted to free it while the machine was running. The ring finger on her right hand contacted the cutting blade, severing approximately 1/4 inch off the tip. At the time of this investigation the guard had been repaired and replaced and Employee #1 had been instructed not to clear jams while the machine was running.
