Narrative

While removing duels from a Komatsu haul truck employee got his right ring finger caught between hub and Rad gun, causing an open tuft fracture requiring 9 stitches. Employee was wearing gloves due to the cold temperature while working outside, therefore he did not notice his finger being in wrong place between the hub and Rad gun.
