Narrative

EEs were setting a pinion into a rack with a bridal chain. The bridal chain became caught between the old pinion and rack. The chain was being moved and the pinion rolled, catching the EE's left thumb and causing a laceration to it. EE was taken to the clinic where they received stitches and restrictions.
