The tank was flange-side down with the lifting lugs facing up as they should have been. Instead of attaching the rigging to the lifting lugs he attached the lifting fixture to the endplates.

The operator positioned one hand on the lifting fixture chain before the lift .When the operator went to lift the tank and swing it out laterally to the work table the tank flipped forward 180 degrees pinching the operators hand between the steel chain and the tank.
