Narrative

Field technician was cutting a bushing from a 993K frame using a torch. While cutting, a piece of hot metal dropped onto the test port hose for the brake accumulator. The hot metal burned the hose which discharged the oil. The oil sprayed onto the cutting torch which immediately flamed up, causing a burn to the side of the technician's left face and ear
