Narrative

An Asarco employee stated that when EE and the crew were working on installing a tramp cylinder on the #2 standard crusher. While lifting the cylinder into position the cylinder swung pinching EE's finger between the cylinder and the mainframe of the crusher. This caused a cut to the finger. (PPE and leather gloves were worn at the time of the incident).
