Abstract: Employee #1 was operating a granulating machine that took sheets of pvc material and ground them into small particles. The material is automatically fed into the machine through squeeze rolls. Employee #1 experienced a jam in the machine whereby material wrapped around the feed roll and cutting blades, stopping the machine. Employee #1 hit the stop buttons and opened the side access panel to the cutting chamber. Attempting to assess the situation, Employee #1 reached into the cutting chamber and pulled on the pvc film. At this point the blades began to rotate, thus snagging Employee #1's arm and pulling it into the point of operation.
