Narrative

EE was trying to pry a large boulder loose with the loader in the pit. The bucket slipped on the boulder and jarred the loader. The right control arm would not lock in place and started moving back and forth while the EE tried to guide the loader. EE suffered a strain injury which was treated conservatively, but after further complaints medical treatment was prescribed on 3/25/11.
