A 988 loader was backing off of a feeder ramp when it struck another 988 loader which was waiting for other mobile equipment in the area to clear. The impact caused the operator of the stationary loader to strike his forehead on part of the rollover protection which in turn resulted in a laceration requiring stitches.
