## Narrative

A tank house operator was harvesting copper on the C cell line. While making a pull, the employee noticed a cathode/blank had become dislodged from the strongback. The operator placed the strongback at chest level to make adjustments. The last cathode/blank slipped off of the strongback and the hanger bar made contact with the operator on the right hip.
