Narrative

On 1/3/2021, an employee was operating a press with a rotating table to fabricate a part. When the employee pressed the palm button on the machine, his left hand fingers slipped forward and entered the swing radius of the block extension on the rotating table. The block extension amputated the tip of the employee's left index finger to the knuckle.
