Operator injures back manually lifting wheelchair ramp

Heard on: Cuyahoga OH Transportation Group Calls

01:13

00:00

I was calling to inform you I heard a cell phone working lift at Highland and Richmond Rd.

00:07

I still have to light the passenger.

00:09

I'm gonna try to be in a point to Navarros, Navarros.

00:13

It's my last trip.

00:14

I still have to let him off.

00:16

I'm gonna try to be as careful as I can, but I will fill out the report.

00:20

I'll pull in tonight.

00:23

Roughly 20 minutes.

00:24

Good evening, 3401.

00:28

I do copy. You said Highland and Richmond.

00:31

What happened?

00:34

Yeah, my lift is.

00:37

It wouldn't, it came up a little bit, but wouldn't come up the rest of the way.

00:42

So I had to do the rest of it manually, and I pulled something in my back.

00:46

It's always, I risk, so I get hit from that lift in my back, and I always risk injury when I work the wheelchair lift manually.

00:54

So it's always a hit or miss, and I hurt myself a little bit at this time.

00:58

Copy.

01:00

This is affirmative 341 on D copy.

01:03

You heard your back listening up the ramp

01:06

manually at Highland and Richmond, and you will file a report later.

01:11

This even I do copy.

01:12

Thank you.
