Narrative

In preparation for painting a new conveyor, one end was resting on a cross-tie and the other end was raised by placing fork lift forks under a tail pulley. As the conveyor was raised to install blocking, the conveyor rolled off the forks striking the left ankle of the individual, fracturing his ankle.
