Narrative

EE was changing out roller cans on CV-23. EE bent over to be able to get between the belt and the roller and was extended to the other side of the conveyor frame. When trying to grab the roller can it was still stuck. When it finally broke loose and the weight of the can transferred to the injured employee's arms, pain was felt in the groin area.
