Employee's finger injured in sprocket chain drive

At 7:00 a.m. on May 4, 1991, Employee #1, a maintenance mechanic for Technican, and his immediate superior were installing a sprocket chain on the rounder/divider in flour line #2. They did not use the established lockout procedures. The rounder/divider was inadvertently energized when the operator closed the machine's panel door, deactivating the interlock system. Employee #1's right middle finger was caught between the sprocket and the sprocket chain drive, sustaining lacerations and torn tendons. He was hospitalized for 28 hours.
