## Narrative

Changing blow bars in Universal 130/150 Impactor, EE was attempting to load a bar into tractor bucket to transport. Lifted more than he should. He thought he had just pulled a muscle below his waistline on his right side. He chose not to go to the doc. Had an annual checkup on 6/7/10 and it was then that it was discovered he had created a hernia by the lifting.
