| Summary Nr: 201089471 | Event: 03/20/2007 | Employee'S Finger Tip Amputated After Being Caught By Belt | ||||
| At approximately 8:00 a.m. on March 20, 2007, Employee #1, an employee of Ag Wise Enterprises, Inc., was using a Vrisimo VariFlex offset mower (model #VF-1105) to mow the grass between tree rows in a company almond grove. He heard a noise from the back of the mower, coming from the multiple v-belt drive. He removed the guard and placed his hands onto a belt to test it for tightness while the machine was in operation. His gloved hand was grabbed by the belt and pulled between the v-belt and the pulley, pinching his finger tips. He was taken to Delano Regional Medical Center, where one of his finger tips was amputated | ||||||
