Narrative

The point (tip) of the rock breaker hammer was jammed in-between two of the fingers at the primary feeder. The EE placed his hand on one of these fingers. The rock breaker hammer moved down and struck the back of the EE's hand. We brought the EE to get X-rays on the hand which came back negative - nothing broken. Hand was bruised.
