The basket had a wire cover but not interlocked. The machine did not stop even with the cover open. He opened the basket cover with his right hand and reached in with his left. He was collecting the napkins stuck on the conveyor rolls when his hand was caught and taken in by the roll causing serious crushing injury. The employee was not hospitalized.
