## Narrative

Installing a carrier assembly in the right rear final drive. After I got the carrier assembly on the final I used the boom to hold the carrier assembly in place as I worked the carrier assembly inward. After the carrier assembly was bolted up I went to retract the boom and hit the work switch on the boom control. It swung the end of the boom into my face.
