## Narrative

An employee was using a walk-behind loader to remove fluff in the working area under the mini mill. While cleaning with the equipment, he wanted to clean the other side of the crossbeam further. When he got closer to the crossbeam, the loader hit a bump and raised upward. His right hand was then pinched between the loader handle and the crossbeam, fracturing his second metacarpal bone.
