Narrative

Temporary employee was pulling on a hydraulic line that was pinched between the crosshead and the bleeder. When the hose came loose the crosshead came to rest on the work deck catching employee's hand between the work deck and crosshead. This caused a thumb fracture on the right hand and laceration to the top of right hand and 2 fingers.
