Final narrative
A brace surrounding the photo eye on the stretch wrapper machine was loose, causing the photo eye to be misaligned. This caused the chain to stop on the conveyor. An employee knelt down to adjust the brace. His hand was on the chain guard on both sides of the brace when the photo eye became aligned and the chain started up again. The chain caught his right middle finger causing a partial amputation to the distal phalanx.
