Narrative

The injured employee was using a Dingo TX 525 to remove accumulated material beneath a structure. While operating the equipment in reverse, the bucket contacted a vertical steel member. The sudden motion crushed EE's left wrist between the Dingo controls and the diagonal structural steel member. The diagnosis was a strain and contusion of the left wrist; no broken bones.
