Narrative

EE was using an impact wrench to remove bolts from the wear segments on a loader. EE placed a hand on the bottom edge to hold the carriage bolt up while using an impact gun. It spun the nut off. The bolt head spun causing a laceration to EE's left index finger and middle finger. EE was wearing protective gloves at the time. EE received stitches and restrictions.
