Narrative

Two employees were conducting maintenance in a man lift. An inadvertent movement of the bucket momentarily caught the employee between the man lift basket and the speed reducer causing the employee to momentarily lose consciousness. After correcting the position of the man lift bucket the employee immediately regained consciousness and walked out of the bucket moments later.
