Cutting outboard bearing on a 2 ton fan on south side of building. Bearing would not slide off and had to cut off with grinder. Outside cuts were made. When working on last inside section, the grinder blade shredded causing pieces of blade to hit top of the employee's left hand.

Employee was drilling holes and a small piece of metal flew out and got by employee's safety glasses and into his eye.
