## Narrative

Employee had removed the bucket from a skid loader to repair it. He had the bucket on a wooden pallet. He had put a block under the bucket so he could get his fingers under it to re-position it. When he was moving the bucket he thought it was over the block of wood but it was not. His fingers got smashed between the bucket and the pallet resulting in a broken finger.
