## Narrative

EE was using handle on coupler to unhook motor from shield car, due to slack in the rope the cars inadvertently drifted ahead coming into contact with EE left foot. Cause of this incident was lack of EE concentration. PPE was not a factor, mining systems was not a factor, compliance with rules/regs was not a factor, miner proficiency was a factor.
