Narrative

Mechanics had removed the old edges and cleaned the surface for the new ones. While lifting the edges a bar is used through the bolt hole so it is easier to carry. The edge slipped on the bar and pinched the mechanics finger between the bar and the edge resulting in a laceration. Employee received 3 sutures in EE's left finger work as tolerated and returned to work.
