Narrative

EE was removing the timing gear off of a screen. EE slid the timing gear to the end of the shaft. EE's right hand was at the 6 o'clock position. It weighed more than expected and pinched EE's right middle finger between the guard and the timing gear. EE suffered a fracture in the right middle finger, and EE received approximately 10 stitches.
