## Narrative

The Tech was performing a removal of a Y-PIN on a 993k Wheel Loader. They were pulling the Y-PIN with the PIN tool specified in the CAT SIS system. When pressure was applied the puller rod pulled the threads out of the end of the Y-PIN. When they moved the apparatus the bell slid off of the puller rod causing the weight of the rod to flip back and strike the tech in the face.
