Abstract: At 11:30 a.m. on July 10, 2021, an employee was using a North American Industrial, 7.5-ton bridge crane to move two stone slabs weighing 800-1000 pounds each across an aisle to consolidate similar product together. The employee was operating the crane using the crane controls. The load was moved into position at the storage rack and lowered. When the load was fully lowered, the Little Giant Lifter, model ALG75, clamp opened as designed. The slabs were still in the upright position when they slipped out of the clamp and fell toward the employee. The slabs struck the employee and killed him.
