Mostrando los 4Two operators were taking a guard off the tail pulley to change out conveyor belting. In the process of trying to remove the guard it became lodged. The operators tried to free the guard and while trying to do so the guard slipped, smashing his thumb between the guard & the hand rail. Changes were made to the guard that night to allow for easier removal.
The EE was in the process of cleaning up material spillage and needed to retrieve a shovel located on a 58" elevated platform. He climbed up the 5 rung ladder to get the shovel maintaining 3 points of contact while descending the ladder. The EE proceeded down the ladder at which time he lost his footing causing his right hand to roll, ripping the skin. See attachments.
EE was using a grinder with a cutting wheel. The grinder caught an angle and the grinder was knocked out of his hand, cutting his finger.
