Narrative

Employee & co-worker were changing cutting edges on a loader. One of the bolts had slipped out of slot. Employee reached up to push it back in & his co-worker turned it with an impact wrench causing the bolt to spin in his hand, causing a cut on right index finger & right thumb. He was wearing heavy gloves, but it went thru it.
