Narrative

Miner was greasing a finish mill bearing with a portable 3 wheeled greaser. The hose did not reach by 6 inches so the miner tried propping the greaser on a block of wood. While lifting the greaser the front caster wheel spun and pinched miner's finger causing a cut to left finger. The cut was serious enough it resulted in restricted job duties until healed, no stitches.
