## Narrative

An employee was spotting the loading of a skip hoist onto a semi trailer. The employee attempted to adjust one of four legs that support the motor pack for the skip hoist, which is a separate piece from the skip hoist. The motor pack weighed 1,850 pounds. The employee was loosening a clamp on one of the motor pack legs when the leg collapsed, causing the motor pack to fall on the employee, who suffered broken vertebrae.
