Narrative

EE was cleaning threads on a cone crusher while other crew members were extracting the mantle. A worker yelled at EE to free the chain on the chain hoist and he stepped into a 1' diameter circular hole that had not been covered after the extraction. This injury was reported as a minor injury and because of persistent symptoms we referred him to a Dr. on 8/17/12.
