Narrative

A choke-up of a blow line caused the system to shut down. The remedy was to remove the lid from the compressor body and remove any restricting material. The lid blew off when all the nuts were removed. The lid struck the team member on the shoulder and caused the arm to be dislocated. A small cut on the right hand also resulted.
