While putting the track back on a cat excavator, a chain became fouled between the segment and track. Another chain was attached to each side of the track so it could be lifted up to relieve pressure on the fouled chain. One of the hooks on the track chain came loose and struck the EE on the chin, causing two lacerations that required stitches.
