Final narrative
On a three head saw machine, an employee was using a hand tool/bar to lift a chain that had a jammed buckle. The employee pressed the foot pedal to move the chain and free the buckle. When the pedal was pressed, the chain moved and caused the hand tool/bar to jerk, which pinched and amputated the employee's right-hand index finger between the chain guard and tool.
