Employee amputates finger while adjusting a machine

At approximately 6:30 p.m. on February 20, 2017, an employee was adjusting the batter flow for the weight. The employee used a section of cardboard to hold the weight wheel in place because the locking bolt did not hold the weight wheel. The piston and other parts of the machine came down and amputated the tip of the employee's finger. The employee was not hospitalized.
