An employee was training another employee. They had positioned a part being worked on in a press. The "set" call was given to ensure everyone knew the pedal was being pressed. The injured employee's hand then slipped on the material and moved under the die. The employee realized his hand was under the die and removed it while the die was coming down. Two of his fingertips were pulled off, while a third finger broke.
