Narrative

The millwright was kneeling on a conveyor belt that was laying on the idler deck, as he repaired the belt. The idler deck was elevated 36 inches above the concrete floor. As the millwright tried to climb off the belt, he caught his foot and jacket on an idler. He then lost his balance which caused him to fall off the conveyor and land on the floor.
