Narrative

On February 16, 2007, EE was driving a wedge in between the shaft and the round roller that is being used to roll up belts. The round roller is made up of pressed wood and as EE had the wedge in position, a piece of the pressed wood chipped off and debris came into EE's right eye. EE was wearing his safety glasses with side sheilds at the time of injury.
