Narrative

An employee was adjusting the photo eye at the back side of a conveyor. His right hand was resting over the cover of the drive chain and sprocket when his left hand activated the eye. He leaned forward and his right index finger was caught in the chain and sprocket, causing a laceration that resulted in a surgical amputation to the first knuckle.
