Employee crushes fingertips in machinery

At approximately 2:20 p.m. on July 6, 1993, Employee #1, the house mechanic, was assigned to repair the chip elevator at a beet washing station. As Employee #1 came down a level from his work area, he noticed that the chip screw conveyor was malfunctioning (a bearing was dragging). He stopped, looked, and radioed for assistance. While waiting for the maintenance supervisor, he decided to clear the debris. Employee #1 grabbed a screwdriver with his right hand and reached into the east end area of the moving conveyor with the first two fingers of his left hand. As he tried to grab the weeds, his two fingers became caught between the flight on the screw conveyor and the bearing hanger. The tips of the two fingers were crushed, and he was hospitalized.
