## Narrative

An employee was removing a shackle from a centrifugal diesel pump lifting lug plate when EE caught the tip of the right 5th (pinky) finger between the shackle and the lifting lug plate. The shackle moved unexpectedly pinching the tip of EE's finger. The injury resulted in an amputation to the tip of the right 5th finger to the first knuckle and required surgery to repair.
