Narrative

Employee was lifting a 4' x 5' screen cloth to the elevated shaker screen. When the employee released the screen cloth, it moved as it settled into place, causing EE's hand to move with the screen as it settled into place. This caused the sheet metal web attached to the screen cloth to cut the outside palm of EE's hand.
