Narrative

While installing a bearing the pulley shifted causing the shell of the pulley to fall off the surface it was resting on. Resulting in the employee's right and left pinky fingers to be pinched between the bottom of the bearing and the steel bearing mount surface. The employee was taken to the hospital where he received stitches in both his left and right pinky fingers.
