## Narrative

Staging a job for kiln roll replacement. While staging the saddle they began to lift it which has a d-link on each end & when it stood upright while still in contact with the concrete ground it began to spin. EE grabbed a hold of the saddle by instinct w/gloved hand to try and stop it. The momentum carried his hand along w/saddle pinching it between a skid steer which was 1' away
