## Narrative

IE and another EE were dislodging the manifold from the water line which was hung from the top. IE was holding the manifold while chain was hooked around it and other EE was hitting it with a sledgehammer. Once the manifold broke free, the chain unhooked and the manifold unexpectedly fell on IE's hand causing IE's right thumb to hit a belt structure bolt.
