Narrative

EE heard a noise coming from an overhead conveyor. He walked over to the head pully of the conveyor & looked up. A small fragment of metal fell from the head pulley of the conveyor and struck the EE in the right eye. The head pulley of the conveyor had slid over against the frame causing a shearing action of metal.
