Narrative

Employees were removing built up material off the end of the analyzer probe. The probe was in the retract position and was stuck. As the material was dislodged, the probe moved approximately 1 inch. The injured employee was holding a flash light and while looking to see, put head next to the probe the exact minute it moved. 7 stitches to the right eyebrow.
