Rick, the danger is the same as working with anything PTO powered. You can't turn it off, better not get hung up in it.
The only person I know who has been hurt was stupid enough to be working on icy ground, poor footing. He'd have been hurt if it had been my PTO generator he had hooked up. There's no reason to have any part of you within 12" of the screw. It's stationary, won't reach out and grab you. You have to do something dumb. Risk? I know guys who got hurt operating a hydraulic splitter, stuck their hand in the wrong place. No good reason, they just did it. I don't.
I've got an axe, maul, and wedges. They don't get much use. Neither does the screw really, I built a house that never gets cold. Wasn't smart enough to do the same for my shop.
