Silo Worker Crushes Fingers on Conveyor Belt

On January 2, 2014, an employee was working at a farm product storage facility. He was working alone on top of some silos. The employee had locked out the electrical disconnect for the drag conveyor between the Number 9 and Number 10 silos so that he could change out the drive belt. The employee had loosened the tension adjustment but was unable to put the belt on without rolling it over the pulley(s). (Presumably, this means "rollers.") The employee's fingers on his right hand were crushed between the belt and a pulley. Several fingers were broken, and the little finger was amputated.
