Narrative

Employee was unhooking 2 rolls of liner that was being placed on a stock pile. The loader operator released the tension on the chain so employee could unhook the straps. Rolls were split on two levels one on top and one on the ground. The bottom roll moved and tightened the chain pinching the employee's ring finger between the loader fork and the chain.
