Quinwood No. 1 Deep Mine Coal

Had motor hoisted to top of building. Had to pick motor up and swing to line bolt holes up. When we swung the motor the bar that the chain hoist was hooked to slid out of the bracket allowing pump motor to fall. EE's hand was caught between the pump motor and pump causing EE's hand to damaged.

EE was hanging miner cable on the section with 2 other EE's when EE felt a pain in EE's right arm. Later in the shift EE's fingers on EE's right hand started becoming numb. EE was using proper lifting techniques and had PPE on. The cable had tension prior to lifting.
