Investigation Summary
Employee #1, who worked as a yardman for a small paving and excavating contractor, was splitting wood with a hydraulic wood splitting machine. He had his right hand on the control valve that moved the splitting ram down, and his left hand on a piece of wood. Employee #1 looked up to see if a customer was arriving, just as the ram was going down. His left thumb was amputated by the splitting head as it was caught between the wood and ram head. He was hospitalized for the amputation.
