Abstract: At 7:25 a.m. on November 2, 2017, an employee was using a Raymond Electric Rider double pallet jack (model number: 841; serial number 841-15-26235) to pick up a loaded pallet. During operation, the employee was driving at a fast speed that caused him to apply the brakes; however, inadvertently depressed the acceleration pedal instead. The employee lost control of the pallet jack and crashed into a steel bollard. The employee crushed his right foot between the pallet jack and the steel bollard. The employee was taken to a nearby medical center where he was admitted for treatment.
