Investigation Summary

The auger was set on a timer to operate for 15 minutes on and 2 minutes off. While Employee #1 was changing the belt, the auger started unexpectedly. His right hand became caught in the belt and pulley system, resulting in the amputation of his middle and ring fingers above the knuckle. The employee was treated without hospitalization.
