Final narrative
An employee was clearing a jam on a pasting line. While trying to clear the jam, the employee jogged the machine into reverse. As a result, his gloved left hand was pulled into the machine. The employee then reversed direction of the machine to "forward" and jogged the machine to free his hand resulting in amputation of the ring finger.
