EE was working in the pole barn catching rock on the 60" MEC splitter. When the rock split, EE went to move it to the conveyor. When doing so the hydraulic depth gauges rose back to the erect position and pushed the rock back up to the head and caught EE's 3rd & 4th finger resulting in torn tissue.
