Investigation Summary
At approximately 12:20 a.m. on April 19, 1991, Employee #1, a laborer, was operating a combination swedging/hole punching machine for metal yard game poles. She cycled a pole through the punch and swedging operation and reached with her right index finger into the hole punch die to scrape away chipped paint. The hydraulically-energized punching die closed and caught her fingertip, amputating it at the first joint. Employee #1 was transported to St. Mary's Medical Center, Evansville, IN, and was treated and released to home care.
