Narrative

At approx. 7:30 AM a mechanic for Mine Machinery was attempting to jump start a 475A Komatsu dozer when one of the batteries blew up in his face and into his eyes. A co-worker was present when accident happened. Another co-worker was close by & came to assist with accident. Immediately we flushed his eyes with water. Went to Highland Regional for further treatment.
