Narrative

A maintenance technician was working on a Epiroc D65 drill installing a new drive line when EE's foot became entangled in hydraulic lines. While trying to free their foot, EE felt a pop in their knee. This resulted in a sprain in the knee and aggravated a previous injury that did not happen on site.
