Narrative

EE was hanging a string cutter on 4 East #2 belt. The string cutter consisted of metal tubing. The EE first inserted the off-walkway side into the bracket and was holding the walkway side in place with index finger on top of the tubing. The off-walkway side slipped out of the bracket, fell down resulting in EE's index finger being pinched between the tubing and the bracket.
