Employee's Arm Is Caught in Machinery and Is Amputated

At approximately 1:25 p.m. on November 2, 2012, Employee #1 finished replacing a bearing on one of the head pulley and conveyor belt assembles of an avocado sizing machine. He then began testing the machine. As he tested it, his right arm contacted the unguarded nip point of another pulley and conveyor. The rotating parts pulled his arm into the machine and amputated it.
