North American Limestone Corporation · Caught in, under or between a moving and a stationary object

Two 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.
