Narrative

Employee was removing cutting edge modules from a 988k loader bucket. While loosening the bolt on the module, the bolt started to spin. Employee reached under and pushed up on the bolt, then engaged the air gun on the nut. This caused the bolt to slip and start spinning again. The bolt head tore through employee's glove into the palm, cutting EE's right hand.
