Narrative

Employee was greasing the southwest pony on 101 Gantry Crane when the seal between the grease gun and the button head fitting leaked and sprayed grease on the left side of his face. Some of the grease got in his left eye. He also had pain in his right thumb later, resulting in outpatient surgery. He was released with restrictions on 4/5/05.
