Narrative

The EE finished bolting the face of the #3 heading on the 002-0 section. He backed the machine up approx 40' out of the face and attempted to turn the machine around in the heading. As he was turning the machine, he twisted his body to the left to look at the location of his cable and in doing so, placed his elbow between light mount and coal rib.
