Narrative

IE was repairing a steering arm on a haul truck. A grease line was attached to the steering arm and supporting part of the weight. When IE removed the grease line, the steering arm dropped and he tried to catch it. His left ring finger was pinched between the steering arm and a piece of cribbing, resulting in a laceration that required 8 sutures.
