Narrative

While rigging a walk-behind, EE was installing a shackle in order to fly equipment off the pre heater tower when another employee pressed the controls lowering the bucket on EE's hand causing a contusion to the hand. The device was de-energized but due to the manufactured settings the bucket can still be lowered without power.
