Narrative

EE was installing a 14"" x 12' double 90 tail leg with a spacer. While trying to install the spacer, the spacer kept catching the gasket. EE reached in with his hand and at the same time the crane was lifted and squeezed the fingers on his left hand. Surgery was performed the same day. He returned to work with restrictions.
