Narrative

Employee was placing a new sheet of metal in the bottom of a loader bucket. He welded two pieces of flat bar on each end to hold the sheet of metal in place and keep it from falling through. When he went to unhook the shackle from the metal he placed his left hand on the sheet. It flipped out of place and pinched his arm between the metal and the bucket.
