Narrative

While tightening lug nuts on a 992 loader the employee was using a 1 inch impact and EE noticed that the ring holding the safety pin on the extension was coming out and by the time EE could react the pin had come out and caught EE's wrist, causing the cut. A fellow employee helped administer first aid to stop the bleeding and bandaged it up.
