An employee was un-chocking an incline cleaner with other employees. They finished working on the machine and started to climb down a ladder to the ground level. While passing another incline machine, the employee reached for a handrail. His hand then contacted the machine's running belt and his hand was dragged into the pulley. His left pinky finger's top joint was amputated just above the fingernail and his left ring finger between the fingertip and first joint was crushed.
