EE returned to his area (Primary Plant) after lunch and radioed in to startup this equipment. He removed a guard at the tail of the 01-CY-02 and reached into the belt transition area where he was grabbed by the left arm between the first trough roller and the conveyor belt. He radioed in STOP! and said he thought he may have broken his arm.
