Vibrating Grizzly Feeder drive belt was slipping, employee climbed into the guarded location area w/o turning off the motor, slipped, braced himself on a C112 single v belt, that action started the belt again, right hand went through the pulley. No fingers lost, stitches on index finger as well as a burn. The x-ray showed nothing. Seeing an orthopedic specialist on 6/15/15.
Material had breached up in the cone crusher and overflowed the feed hopper. He was going to look and see what got plugged up and a piece overflowed from the hopper and hit him just above the lip and below his nose. They put one stitch in it. Returned to work at noon the next day.
