Narrative

The EE was operating a 14 ton manitex boom truck in a narrow road between B-Tanks preparing to move an empty MCC panel. EE was unable to extend the main outriggers due to width of road. EE didn't like the position and began to pull boom back in and the truck begin tilting, so the injured worker jumped off the boom truck onto the ground.
