Final narrative
An employee was trying to clear a jam of wood debris (cut-offs) at a transition between a flat belt and a shaker-conveyor. When the employee grabbed a cut-off, it caught the belt and wedged the employee's left index finger between the belt and the shaker-conveyor surface. The finger was amputated. The machine was unguarded at the time of the incident.
