Narrative

EE was asked to power down a gas welder, but could not find the off switch. He decided to use the throttle cable to shut down the welder. There was a cooling fan in close proximity of the throttle cable & when the throttle was moved the fan had caught the 3rd finger of his right hand & a small but deep cut to the side by the knuckle. Stitches were needed. 1 cm in size.
