Final narrative
An employee was performing their normal duties as a tire assembler when a tire's sidewall came off the guide on a machine. The employee reached over the drum to re-engage the sidewall back onto the guide. While making the adjustment, the machine cycled and the sidewall knife contacted the employee's right middle finger amputating the fingertip between the bottom of the fingernail and the knuckle closest to the fingernail.
