Coots Materials Company Inc · Struck by... (Not Elsewhere Classified)

The primary crusher was shut down due to a boulder. Our plant man/mech had positioned himself to open chamber door, he did so before impeller had come to a complete stop. Then thinking he could stop the impeller, he put his hand into the pinch point between impeller and door opening.
