Employee lifted a new cutting blade into place on the continuous miner gathering head to weld. A floor jack was used to pressure it into place. The jack extension was side loaded not center loaded causing it to break free, flying out and hitting the employee above the right eye. The extension cut through the right eyebrow onto the eye lid. It required 6 stitches to close it up.
