Installing pin in the bucket of a front end loader using a 10# hammer. When he applied force, he felt pain in his right shoulder causing him to drop the hammer. He was then placed on restrictive duty pending MRI. Results of MRI revealed arthritis. GA could no longer accomodate restrictions because of the indefinite nature of his condition.
