With the engine running, he wanted to adjust the thresher's drive belt and then the mechanism caught the man's hand.
Firefighters, police and ambulance services intervened on site. The seriously injured host was transported to the hospital by an air ambulance helicopter. The 41-year-old was sober, the police reported.
At the same time, the police appeal to farmers to be careful when operating agricultural machinery and equipment: "A moment of inattention, fatigue or failure to follow basic safety rules while performing routine and seemingly simple activities may end tragically."
