Mechanic fractures hand between guard and belt sheave

Employee #1, a maintenance mechanic who had been with the employer for six years, was inside a trim saw's housing replacing a broken v-belt.

Employee #1 forgot to complete the lockout procedure; specifically, he did not deactivate the air pressure and bleed the reservoir to prevent movement.
