Final narrative
An employee was cleaning the feed section of a lint cleaner. The machine was running at the time. While he was removing lint, his left hand got caught by the machine and was pulled in up to his forearm. A coworker working about 10 feet away ran over and turned off the machine. The employee's middle and index fingertips were smashed between two rollers.
