## Narrative

An employee was redressing a compact setting tool and had it in a vise. He put the mandrel in the sleeve and attempted to screw the mandrel onto the tool.

As he attempted to catch the mandrel and sleeve, he stumbled and the mandrel struck/pinched his finger on the floor, resulting in a left middle fingertip amputation.
