Narrative

Working with another EE on pump. EE placed a bar to hold sheave and the other EE asked him to move the bar so he could check the threads on the shaft. When the other EE tried to screw on the impeller the EE had not replaced the bar and tried to hold the sheave by the belts. EE's fingers were caught between the drive belt and sheave.
