## Narrative

An employee was installing PEX (cross-linked polyethylene) piping material for a propane line connection. He was cutting off excess PEX piping material with a PEX cutter. He noticed an unassociated piece of material was in the way of the PEX cutter. He reached up to move the infringing material, and his arm came down on the blade of the PEX cutter resulting in a severe laceration to his arm.
