Narrative

IE was removing #2 belly pan. IE planned to rattle hinge bolt with impact to get the pan to hinge downward. Bolt threaded out and allowed belly pan to move. Cable supporting the pan allowed the pan to move sideways due to weight. Side movement of pan pinched IE's arm between belly pan and side frame of tractor.
