## Narrative

An employee was working to pull out drip lines by hand from the ground. While re-winding the line into the tape roller (an auxiliary tractor attachment), the injured employee asked the tractor driver to stop. Then due to a lack of slack, he asked the driver to pull forward. When the tractor pulled forward, the employee was pulled into the roller and sustained broken ribs.
