Event: 12/08/1999

Employee's fingers amputated while using a shaper

At approximately 8:15 a.m. on December 7, 1999, Employee #1, a cabinet maker, was assigned by his supervisor to shape an elliptical piece of molding on a Schneider Shaper, Model Number 6239, Type FCT-8. Apparently what happened was that as he was shaping (cutting) the molding it kicked back causing his left hand to go into the blade. The blade severely cut his left hand's index, middle, and little fingers. He was hospitalized. Employee #1 stated that at the time of the accident there was no guard on the shaper.
