Narrative

Two emp. were disassembling bricking ring on kiln bricking platform. One emp. lifted height adjuster too high on one side. The resulting pressure on other side of ring broke a guide, causing ring to fall. Emp. near broken guide jumped off bricking platform to avoid falling ring. This caused a re-separating shoulder previously injured in non-work related incident.
