Narrative

An employee was setting up hoses and chains for a grout packer that was inserted into piping and a sewer manhole. While he was working in the manhole, the grout packer became stuck. As he reached down to release it, the packer took off down the line and lacerated the web area of his right hand between his index finger and thumb.
