Employee's finger amputated by farm equipment

On April 6, 2000, Employee #1, a farm worker, had the tip of the left index finger amputated when it was caught between the left rear canopy support on an Allis Chalmers HD5 tractor and a rope Employee #1 was holding. The rope was attached on one end to a grass seed metering device on a towed Brillion 10-ft-wide seeder and the other end to the canopy support above Employee #1's hand. This occurred at the end of the row when Employee #1 would shut off the seed by pulling the rope, but the slack caught the left track of the tractor pulling the rope up taut on his hand. He was hospitalized.
