Narrative

The employee states he reached under the guard to remove a piece of leggen on a 60"" belt with his right hand while the conveyor belt was moving. The moving belt caught his right hand forcing the hand into the roller of the conveyor belt, cutting off the first joint of his right index finger. All guards were in place.
