Investigation Summary
At approximately 1:00 p.m. on September 29, 2009, Employee #1, a maintenance mechanic, was told that there was noise coming from the kitchen exhaust system. Employee #1 went upstairs and had a look at the drive system and uncovered the two horizontal pulleys. The pulleys were 4-inch and 4.5-inch in diameter, with the center distance 10 inches and the V belt width 0.5 inches. The manufacturer of the system is Captive Air system, Model number NCA16FA. (No serial number) Employee #1 determined that the belt was loose and he tightened it. He then asked the kitchen cook to start the system. When the belt drive started, Employee# 1's right ring finger was amputated and his middle finger was injured. Employee #1 went to the kitchen and reported the accident. He was taken by paramedics to St. Mary's Hospital, where he stayed for 4 hours.
