Narrative

The employee was using a come-a-long to install an upper fairlead sheave on D31 Dragline. As he was pulling the come-a-long, the pin traveled farther than it normally would and the employee hit his right elbow on the bushing between the elaborate seal & the sheave. On 8/14/06 the doctor diagnosed it as Bursitis.
