Narrative

While changing out an equalizer bar on a D10R Track Dozer, an employee had his hand in a pinch point between the equalizer bar and Dozer frame while he was using a wrench. The employee's left pinky and ring finger were pinched between the frame and equalizer bar resulting in a crushing/amputation injury to these two fingers.
