## Narrative

Ee was performing work on the crane on the lower dock.  He and a co-worker were changing over from the claw to the bucket.  After attaching the tagline to the bucket, ee tugged on the tagline to tension it up with the boom.  The resulting tension sucked his hand into the cable guide (bell), and cut his hand.
