Narrative

Two employees were attempting to lift a crusher lube pump from the back of a pickup. The employee lost grip on the pump due to oil on the pump and EE's gloves. This caused the pump to fall and smash the employee's finger between the coupling of the pump and the tailgate of the pump. The tip of finger was fractured and two stitches were provided to close the laceration.
