A wireline operator was rebuilding a hydraulic setting tool. He finished rebuilding the bottom section of the tool and noticed it was partially stroked out. He went to use the weight of the setting sleeve to finish stroking the tool vertically. His finger was in the hole at the end of the setting sleeve and when he hit the ground with the tool, it stroked and amputated his right ring fingertip.
