Narrative

Crusher repairs: The supervisor welded a pad eye on the jaw plate and the employee attached a come-along to the pad eye. During the work activity the employee increased the tension on the chain and the weld holding the pad eye in place failed. The chain from the come-along hit the employee's elbow.
