Narrative

Another company came to tighten a bolt on the quick coupler of a CX350. They tried with a swivel head ratchet on the nut end & an air impact on the head of the bolt. It didn't work. Then switched places & our EE was holding the ratchet with a hand on the head of the bolt & tried to loosen it, the pivot pin in the ratchet broke & smashed EE's left thumb.
