Investigation Summary
On March 7, 2001, Employee #1 began his usual duties of checking and cleaning the power screening machine and found that a conveyer belt was slipping off the rollers. He informed his supervisor who instructed him to clean the machine, start it and then call him. Employee #1 climbed into the machine through a narrow unguarded opening in the truck chassis, and used a pipe to clean a roller on the 60 in. wide conveyer. Shortly thereafter a coworker saw Employee #1 caught in the machine and called for help. Employee #1 was pulled from the conveyer and eventually died.
