Investigation Summary
At 12:30 p.m. on August 1, 2019, an employee was attempting to remove a stuck cap from "Capper #12." While attempting to remove a stuck cap from inside of Capper #12 as it was running, the employee leaned over to turn off the machine and lost his balance. This caused his stabilizing right hand to slide over the small lower guard and get caught in the ingoing nip point of the gear and belt. The employee was treated and hospitalized to treat a broken middle finger and bruised index finger on the right hand.
