Narrative

Bottom south wheel assembly on the south skip, east wheel became misaligned causing contact with guide plates, timbers, and beams causing the bracket to bend. This prevented full movement of the south skip to the loading position. It was determined that tension on the wheel assembly may have been too high. Inspection and adjustment procedures are being reviewed with all shifts.
