Final narrative
An employee was preparing to repair a leaking hydraulic hose on a catwalk. The catwalk trough was raised so that the employee could insert maintenance stops that go underneath the trough on both sides. After the employee inserted the maintenance stops, the employee lowered the trough. The trough continued to come down, causing the maintenance stop to come out and strike the employee in the abdomen, resulting in a contusion.
