Final narrative
An employee was aligning/installing the bottom punch in a forging press. An airline was hooked up to extend cylinders for the die pod. The airline became disconnected and the die pod fell, pinching the employee's left index finger between the die and the punch. The finger was amputated to the second knuckle.
