Narrative

Employee was cutting out a blade liner on a D-11R dozer. The liner broke loose pushing him to the ground. His foot was under the blade and his foot was fouled when he began to move causing a break to his lower left leg (blade was on the ground; the ground was uneven where the work was being done).
