Narrative

Employee was installing a hydraulic hose on a haul truck. They reached both hands overhead, twisting the hose into position. The temperature was 9 degrees F, making the hose difficult to maneuver. They held back other hoses with their left hand while attempting to manipulate the bottom fitting in the flange with their right hand when they felt discomfort in their right shoulder.
