Final narrative
On or about August 6, 2016, an employee was using a vehicle-mounted winch when the holding mechanism malfunctioned and the wire cable kept unwinding. The employee could not pull their right hand back in time and it was pulled into the first "sheave" that was about 6 feet away from the winch, amputating three fingers.
