Narrative

Two employees were in the process of changing out a two-stage hydraulic pump on a Fletcher Roof Bolter. The injured employee was working on the old pump in the rear walkway of the bolter. The other mechanic was working on the new pump on the top of the bolter (bolting tray). The pump fell from the tray and landed on the victims hand.
