Narrative

While hooking up a trailer to a lo-trac the employee asked the forks be raised. When the forks were raised, one fork came up quickly and came back down pinching the inside of the right leg between the fork and trailer causing a contusion. It was later determined the employee suffered an acl tear which required surgery. He began missing work on 8-22-2012
