## Narrative

I was operating an excavator.  I wanted to open the front window when I slid the front window in machine cab over my head with force, I jammed my finger between the window and the window guide.  I simply had my hand in the wrong spot.  There were no sharp areas, the cut came from blunt impact.  I went to the ER and received 6 stitches.
