Narrative

An employee was installing a stick cylinder that was hoisted by a 5-ton care into the boom arm of an excavator. The eye end of the stick was being installed on the bracket of the boom arm. The employee was on the floor installing the pin when the crane started to lift and tilt the boom arm toward the employee. The employee struck a utility cart while moving out of the way and the boom arm fell on and fractured both of the employee's lower legs.
