Narrative

While preparing the bulk truck to load a floor shot, the IP stood below the auger boom and attempted to connect a flexible loading hose to the auger boom. The loading hose uses a 4"" camlock as the connector. As the IP attempted to make the connection IP lost control and the hose fell with the camlock striking the IP in the mouth causing damage to lip and teeth.
