Final narrative
An employee was moving solar beams (250-pound I-beams) from a stack using a specially designed tool to lower one beam at a time onto rollers. Once lowered onto rollers, the beam could then be navigated through the remainder of production. A beam was lowered onto his right-hand fingers and the employee sustained amputations of their distal middle and ring fingers.
