Narrative

EE was using the SteelWeld Shear to cut metal pieces to make a machine guard. When EE activated the foot pedal on the machine, EE's hand was in position under the clamp to hold the metal. EE's right middle finger was caught between the hydraulic piston that holds the metal being cut on the SteelWeld Shear work table.
