## Narrative

EE was checking on the mill scale carryover screw conveyor for a choke and put EE's right hand up on the drive guard that was over the v-belt and sheaves. As EE's hand was on the guard the sheave rubbed the guard causing the guard to push back causing what the EE described as a jammed finger to EE's right ring finger.
