Narrative

Employee was moving the hinge portion of the chute attached to the Simplicity shaker for the secondary plant. The amount of force used to pry the hinge portion of the chute caused the blade portion of the telehandler to jump when the piece was dislodged. The blade from the telehandler landed on the Employee's left index finger causing laceration.
