Narrative

Employee was operating loader controls for another mechanic who was changing bucket pins. The cab was getting warm, so EE turned on the A/C. He then stuck his hand into the vent cavity (the vent louver was off & sitting on the dash in front of EE) to feel the air temperature. His left index & middle fingers came in contact with the A/C fan blower wheel.
