Narrative

On June 5, 2025, at approximately 6:45 AM, an employee was installing an auger tube onto a combine when it wouldn't slide into place due to a bind. After adjusting the hoist to remove the bind, the auger slid into place and struck their left thumb. The employee sustained a partial amputation of the thumb to the distal interphalangeal joint.
