Using a chisel as a spacer in a chain breaker while re-assembling a continuous miner conveyor chain. He had his hand on top of the chisel to remove it and the chain jumped causing the end of the chisel to strike against his right hand between his thumb and index finger. The laceration needed five sutures to close. No time from work was lost. This is a medical treatment incident.
