Final narrative
An employee was attempting to retrieve part numbers from a compressor's fan belts to do maintenance on the machine. When the employee manually advanced the belts to better see the numbers, the compressor started up unexpectedly and caught his fingers in the pulley and belt. His left index, middle, and ring fingers were partially amputated. The compressor was not locked out at the time of the incident.
