Narrative

Employee's DBT scoop bucket had been damaged, side bent in. Resulting from normal in and out extraction of the ram, a steel burr had formed along the edge of the bucket. He was attempting to show the maintenance supervisor the damaged location. When rubbing his hand alongside the bucket, his finger contacted the steel burr resulting in a small laceration to the middle finger.
