A scoop was driving through a wing curtain and caught it on the canopy. IE asked for the scoop operator to stop and shut down the machine, but IE hurried in too quickly to free the curtain before the emergency brake had time to fully set. The scoop was on a slight incline and rolled a few inches onto the IE's right foot. IE suffered two broken metatarsals.
