An employee was jointing a board with a jointer. The board jumped when it came into contact with the jointer's cutter head, and the jolt caused the employee's left hand to slide between the board and the guard and come into contact with the cutter head. He suffered lacerations/partial amputations to the middle, ring, and index fingers.
