Narrative

EE AND OTHER EE WERE PUTTING LINERS IN A FINISH BALL MILL. THE LINER ABOUT 250 LBS WOULD NOT FIT IN THE HOLE, SO THEY PULLED IT BACK OUT TO MOVE IT OVER WHEN AN EE FROM INSIDE OF THE MILL USED A BAR TO PRY THE LINER OVER. THIS CAUSED THE ROLLER CONVEYOR TO MOVE AND THE WEIGHT OF THE LINER SHIFTED AND IT FELL ON THE EE LEFT FOOT STEEL TOE BUT CRACKED THE TOE.
