Caught in, under or between a moving and a stationary object

Worker was ""barring down"" feed material in an attempt to clear a ""plug"" in the cone crusher. During the process, the worker injured his left, ""pinky"" finger (most likely when the worker's finger was ""pinched"" between the bar, and another object - cone, rock, etc). The worker was wearing gloves at the time of the incident.
