## Narrative

Sending supplies into the mine via the #3 cage w/ 5 ton overhead hoist. The material sled was halfway out of the cage at the landing when the springs around the chain/hook assembly became entangled in the hook causing the chain to not properly pass through the hook. The sled could not be freed initially causing the #3 hoist to be inoperable.
