Narrative

A groundman at the Dragline #3 was assisting in the resocketing of the hoist ropes. As the EE swung a #20 sledgehammer, he missed square impact and glanced off the hoist wedge and hit right side steel-toed boot. The EE refused onsite treatment and was transported to a medical facility for evaluation.
