Narrative

An employee was using a hydraulic hoist to lower a 200-pound manhole cover into a frame so a safety hinge could be installed. The lid became dislodged and fell from the hook, landing on the employee's fingertips. He suffered an amputation to the left middle fingertip, as well as an avulsion to the left ring fingertip.
