Narrative

The employee thought he had the forks of his Komatsu WA200 securely pinned but the fork attachment fell off. The loader ran over the forks and then came to a very abrupt stop. The operator struck his head on the edge of the sun visor, which was still partially down. The laceration required 6 stitches.
