Investigation Summary

Investigation Nr: 902379
Event: 08/17/1990
Employee's fingers and thumb amputated in power press

At approximately 9:15 p.m. on August 17, 1990, Employee #1, a press operator for Federal-Mogul, switches division, Logansport, IN, was attempting to feed stock into the scrap chopper guide on a Federal 60 ton, part revolution mechanical power press, serial #56A2364, Press #1. As Employee #1 held the end of the stock with her left hand, she leaned to her right to change the press controls from the foot-control mode to the two-hand control mode. The shift in her weight caused her right foot, which was in the foot control, to cycle the press. Employee #1's hand was caught in the point of operation and her left thumb, forefinger, middle finger, and ring finger were amputated.
