Narrative

An employee was feeding a double end trim saw. He dropped a board and bent over to retrieve the board. He reached up to pull himself up and grabbed the sprocket guard on the end. As he grabbed the bottom of the guard, a lug caught him and pulled his hand into the guard. He sustained a cut between the ring and middle finger on the left hand.
