Narrative

While removing cutting edge bolts from a cat 988H loader, EE used his hand to push up a volt to lock it into place. At the same time he hit the trigger of the impact wrench with his other hand causing the bolt to spin in his hand. The worn bolt head cut his thumb through his leather glove. He was wearing all requited PPE and the loader was locked out and tagged.
