Narrative

Employee was working in the clinker basement hooking up several ladders to the hook of the Model 308 Grove Crane. As he was securing the ladders with a rope, he noticed that the rope was tangled in some other equipment. The spotter misinterpreted his movements with his hand as the signal to raise the load, which cause his RT hand to be pinched under the cable.
