## Narrative

An employee was operating a bar spinner machine when he noticed that it was not moving back and forth smoothly. The employee went under the machine while troubleshooting to look at how it was traveling along the rails. As the employee went to stand up, his hand came in contact with the machine while the spindle was still in motion, resulting in an amputation of the right index finger above the first knuckle.
