Final narrative
On March 9, 2024, an employee was performing maintenance on a conveyor belt. The employee was lubricating the chain and sprocket of the drive and got excess lubricant on the backside of the conveyor. As he removed the excess lubricant with a rag, the rag was caught in the chain and sprocket pulling part of his right hand into the gears. His little finger was amputated at the first knuckle, his ring finger was fractured and required sutures, and his middle fingertip was broken and also required sutures.
