Employee lacerates leg with chain saw

On September 10, 2002, Employee #1 was in a steep draw, felling a tree. To keep his balance on the steep slope, he put one foot up hill. He made the lower part of the face cut with the back of his bar and chain, when the saw kicked back and came up underneath him. It missed his leg protection and lacerated the inside and the back of his leg.
