Narrative

Injured employee positioned a longwall leg jack onto the bedplate extension so the jack could be removed from the face. EE failed to secure the jack against movement. Employee briefly looked away from the jack & at that time the movement of the shearer caused the jack to roll off the bedplate onto EE's left leg resulting in a fracture to the fibula.
