Narrative

An employee was cutting lumber with a pull saw. He had accumulated some scrap lumber underneath the blade. He turned the saw off and proceeded to clean under the saw blade and guard when his hand hit the blade, lacerating his left thumb and index finger. The blade had not come to a complete stop at the time of the incident.
