Narrative

Technician was removing a blade from a John Deere 772G Motor Grader when the back of the bolt slipped out of the carriage and onto EE's finger. The air impact wrench continued to spin the bolt, which shifted it's position, causing a laceration to technician's hand through the work gloves. Technician received eight (8) stitches to the right index finger.
