Employee Fractures Arm after Failure to Lock Out Conveyor

On August 14, 2006, Employee #1 climbed on to an I-beam to clean muck off the tail pulley of a conveyor belt attached to a separator. While the conveyor system was energized and in operation, the employee reached between the feed and return of the belt in front of the tail pulley with his hand to brush the muck off the belt. He was caught by the moving belt, and his hand and arm were pulled into a pinch point in the tail pulley. The employee fractured his arm.
