damage to apple tree trunk/bark, what do I do?

This is why I mow my own lawn. For the first time ever, I had somebody else mow. He used a weedwacker on my 3 year old Arkansas Black that I had been nursing along. He chewed out a square patch of bark, about 1.5 inches by 1.5 inches about 3 inches above where the tree meets the ground.

What do I do? Can I do anything to help this tree survive?

Will this be a fatal injury? thanks, Dan
