Narrative

An employee was working at the log deck of the hew-saw. He was attempting to free a stuck log when the rotary feeder pushed the log, causing his left foot to become pinned between the log and the wall of the equipment. This resulted in a fracture to his left foot, requiring hospitalization. The rotary feeder was in operation at the time of the incident.
