Narrative

Employee had cut off the air to the bagger and locked it out before he began to tighten a plate on it. While tightening the plate, he had his finger in the pinching mechanism and pushed the button to activate it at the same time. The pinching mechanism cut the tip off his middle finger on his right hand (flesh only - no bone involved).
