Narrative

EE WERE LIFTING A BAR TO BE INSTALLED INTO THE PRIMARY CRUSHER UNDERGROUND USING A CHAIN & SCALER. THE SCALER OPERATOR WAS INSTRUCTED TO BOOM DOWN TO CREAT MORE SLACK TO ALLOW THE CHAIN TO BE TIGHTENED AROUND THE BAR. THE SCALER HAS A FLOATATION VALVE THAT RELEASED BELOW A CERTAIN ELEVATION ALLOWS THE BOOM TO GO TO THE FLOOR. WHEN THE BOOM DESCENDED IT CAUGHT THE EE'S HAND.
