Narrative

Service Technician was performing maintenance on an impact crusher, rotating the impact blow bars. While handling one of the bars EE lost grip and it slipped out of EE's hand. A sharp edge on the blow bar cut the palm of EE's hand, requiring 5 stitches to close the wound. It was a very hot day and EE decided not to wear protective gloves.
