Narrative

Employee was sitting on the muck pile in the Link Belt 330LX feeding the Jaw Crusher. By accounts, the Extec Screen Plant stopped and was overflowing with material. It appears that EE tried to climb out of his equipment to turn the jaw off, slipped and fell 12 - 15 feet down the muck pile. He was found unconcious and given first aid by co-workers until help arrived.
