Employee Amputates Hand in Hay Bailer

On July 2, 2005, an employee and a coworker were operating two separate 370 Freeman hay bailer. When the coworker tried to start up the hay bailer by engaging the clutch, the hay bailer stalled. The coworker then called over to the employee who was working on the hay bailer next to the coworker. Unknown to the coworker, the employee came over to the hay bailer that the coworker was trying to get running and found a clog of hay inside the hay bailer. Again, unknown to the coworker, the employee reached into the hay bailer to remove the clog. The coworker engaged the hay bailer by engaging the clutch, and the employee got his left hand amputated at the wrist. The employee was the supervisor of the coworker.
