Narrative

The EE was using a come-a-long to lift the center tube on the Peterson Filters. The hook on the come-a-long slipped 1 link and pinched his palm between the hook and the chain it was hooked on. The EE received 8 stitches to close the laceration on the palm of his right hand. Released back to full duty.
