Narrative

EE was working on removing rotar bearing from 1200 impact crusher. Task required a puller, when puller failed to remove bearing, EE attempted to free the bearing with a hammer, resulting in a foreign object landing in EE's eye. I would later say the object to be determined to be a piece of metal by EE's treating physician.
