He was removing a roll of foil (2419 lbs) from the foil stand in order to turn it around 180 degrees. He lifted it out with the hoist and tried to rotate it in the narrow space between the chucks (rather than moving it out where there is more space).

He got the roll rotating but it started to swing towards the machine frame. He put his hand on the roll to try to redirect it and his hand was pinched between the roll and the machine.
