Investigation Summary
At 10:25 p.m. on October 2, 1995, Employee #1 was using a broom with a long handle to clean the conveyor belt and rollers of a corn binding machine while the belt was moving. After he had finished and put the equipment away, he noticed some corn husk still attached to the end roller and he tried to remove the husk with his hands. The conveyor was still in motion and his arm became caught in the binder. The handle to shut off the conveyor belt was less than 10 ft away from where Employee #1 was working.
