Narrative

Two employees were removing shafts on a feeder pan housing at the primary. While pulling out one of the shafts, the injured employee put his hand between the chain of a come-a-long and the feeder frame, smashing his 5th right finger. He sought medical attention, resulting in about 1/4 inch of bone amputation of his 5th right finger.
