Investigation Summary
On May 18, 2913, Employee #1 and a coworker were operating a West Plains double head wood notching machine. The employees were working by light from a wood fire they had built in a metal container. The coworker was positioned at the feed end of the machine, placing wood boards onto a conveyer. The Employee was positioned at the exit end of the machine removing the notched boards from the machine's exit end. A board became jammed at the machine's exit end, and Employee # 1 reached into the running machine to clear the jammed board. As he did so, the jammed board jerked his right hand into the notching blade. The employee was taken by a coworker to Rowan Regional Medical Center emergency room and was transferred by ambulance to Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center, where he was scheduled for hand surgery. Employee #1 remained hospitalized.
