Final narrative
An employee was attempting to cut wood flooring to size with a chop saw. He mashed down on the steel plate on top of the saw blade guard with his left hand while his right hand was near the blade. The blade then severely lacerated his right hand and amputated his right pinky fingertip. The saw was guarded at the time of the incident.
