## Narrative

An experienced miner was blading an area. While working the second pass, EE leaned forward to get a better look at the material coming out from the blade. EE came in contact with a large, unseen, rock that was part of the fill material. In doing so the equipment came to an abrupt stop causing head to come forward and the tooth coming into contact with the steering wheel.
