Narrative

EE was conducting a repair to a vulcanized splice. EE was repairing the skive on the spice by using a low speed polishing sander. As the other EE held back the skive the EE started the buffing process when the grinder caught the belt and caused the sander to kick out of the skive hitting him in the forehead. EE received 4 stitches to his forehead.
