## Narrative

In the process of plowing and cindering the haul road with a 1986 International S1800 dump truck, the injured stopped the truck to check on the remaining cinders. While standing on the tire, his foot slipped and his wedding ring got caught on a screw on the side board, causing the left hand ring finger to be degloved, which resulted in the amputation of his left ring finger.
