## Narrative

EE went to retrieve a mid kiln sample. He found the port plugged so he inserted a rod to loosen material. The rod became stuck, so he had to pull hard to remove. The rod became free and hot feed spilled from the port and entered the gap between the cuff of glove and coat sleeve. 2nd degree burns to lower arm and 1st degree on upper arm.
