Narrative

The Supervisor was helping load some trash wire on the forks of a TH-83 extendable boom forklift. He gave the proper signal to roll the forks back & did not realize that he had his hand in the pinch point until the injury occurred. The index, middle & ring fingers were cut & middle finger required 5 stitches & index 1. He was released on light duty.
