Narrative

FEL operator at the crusher was in the process of positioning the bucket over the side of Komatsu truck when EE hit the lever to come down slamming the bucket onto the side of the truck. FEL operator was talking on the 2 way radio to tell another truck to go get material from the plant when the accident happened. Operator having the mic caused EE to push it too far forward.
