## Narrative

Employee was using a 1"" air impact wrench to remove bolts from a cutting edge lip protector on a 993K CAT loader. EE was removing a bolt and it began to rotate. EE pushed up on the bolt and bumped the rotation of the air impact hoping the bolt would lock back into position but instead the bolt spun causing a laceration to EE's left index finger. This resulted in 17 stitches.
