Investigation Summary
At 10:30 p.m. on July 2, 2019, an employee was troubleshooting the Air-O-Fan PTO GB Trail Duster machine connected to the tractor. The employee had stopped the power take off connected to the duster but left the tractor running while investigating the problem with the sulfur not metering properly. The employee removed the two lug nuts and side cover so he could access the sulfur inside the hopper. The employee stuck his fingers in the hole inside the hopper to move the sulfur around when he contacted the auger. The employee suffered a right ring finger amputation and was treated without hospitalization.
