Narrative

Part of a crew replacing the belt on a feed conveyor (C-397). He was working in a manlift. Attempted to push the conveyor belt into the center of the troughing roller. He felt a twinge/pull in his left shoulder. Pushed a second time on the belt, the pain was more severe and he had a hard time moving his left shoulder, i.e. the pain worsens with movement.
