Narrative

EE was helping to lower a 75 hp. fan from an elevated platform, approx. 7ft. The fan slid off of the cables and fell to the platform. When the fan fell, it hit him and knocked him off the platform onto the conveyor belt, hurting his back and left thigh. Fall protection was available but not used.
