Final narrative
An employee was waiting on a backhoe to bring a manhole down from a stock pile to be installed at a pump station. The employee was sliding the manhole ring when a bolt that holds the backhoe blade caught the ring and lid. This caused the employee to lose his grip, and the ring and lid dropped on his left hand, smashing his index and ring fingers and resulting in a middle fingertip amputation.
