Narrative

An employee was changing the fan motor of a Dozer. The motor was located in the top of the cab where there was no visibility. As he was loosening a bolt his hand came in to contact with the fins of the condenser. His left hand was lacerated between the thumb and the finger. Four stitches were needed to close the wound. The employee was released to return to work the following day.
