Investigation Summary
At 12:00 p.m. on April 18, 2017, an employee was operating a Z Spray fertilizer spreader. The hopper jammed and the employee attempted to push damp fertilizer material into the motorized hopper through the lower assembly opening. The employee's glove was caught by the agitator pin in the lower assembly of the motorized hopper and entangled the employee's hand between the pin and the lower assembly housing. The employee sustained abrasions and superficial lacerations to the index and middle fingers which required stitches.
