## Narrative

A mechanic was working on a Sullair air compressor engine oil leak with the engine running.  EE had an inspection mirror in EE's left hand and a flashlight in EE's right hand.  EE observed that the engine was not leaking anymore so EE pulled EE's hands back.  The fan caught EE's left hand and pulled it into the fan causing injuries to EE's left hand.
