Narrative

The main cage was being used to transport the belt winder spool. When the cage was about 10 ft off the bottom the load shifted, causing the cage to shift. This caused the automatic safety dogs to engage and abruptly stopped the hoist. This caused damage to both of the cage doors. The cage was operated manually and returned to the surface for repairs and investigation.
