## Narrative

A team was setting up the crane.  An employee then put his fingers on the alignment collar-bolting flange to see if the bolt had broken off in the housing.  While physically checking the bolt pattern the hydraulic cylinders were actuated and the alignment collar slid back into the cylinder housing smashing the left hand index finger of the employee who was checking the bolt.
