Narrative

Employee was removing the belly pan from a D-11 dozer when it fell on his legs. He was instructed to place the tractor on our concrete pad and use the designated JTA procedures for removing the pan. He was told to use a jack and to be sure to be careful in the process. He decided to start cutting the pan loose from the tractor and had no cribbing or jack under the pan.
