Investigation Summary
On May 3, 2002, Employee #1 was assisting the property owners and other employees with cleaning the "Walnut Pit Hauler" conveyors. The end roller on the bottom conveyor had chunks of debris on it. Employee #1 reached into the conveyor area and attempted to use a screwdriver to scrap away the debris from the roller. As soon as the screwdriver made contact with the roller, the roller pulled the screwdriver along with his right hand and arm into the roller. Employee #1 was hospitalized and his right arm was amputated at the elbow.
