Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 005 Hazard:
29 CFR 1928.57(c)(2)(i): The mesh or nip-points of all power driven gears, belts, chains, sheaves, pulleys, sprockets, and idlers were not guarded. The employer is failing to prevent employee exposure to struck-by and caught-in-between hazardous. The condition was most recently observed on about on or about May 5th, 2020 at a silo located at 8702 Highway B in Palmyra, MO. Randall E. Klocke Farm had not ensured one or more methods of machine guarding were provided to protect the operator and other employees in the machine area from hazards such as those created by ingoing mesh or nip points. A motor and auger used to remove grain from a 42 foot diameter silo did not have the pulleys and belt guarded.
