Narrative

An employee was teaching other employees how to pull a machine's shaft manually. With the machine turned off, the employee manually released air from the shaft. The shaft was pulled from the other end, and a finger on the employee's right hand was caught between the shaft and the core. The finger was lacerated and partially amputated.
