Abstract: Employees #1 and #2 were working on a scissor lift scaffold with the lift raised. The lift was in the path of a traveling bridge crane operated by a pendent control in the middle of the bay. As the operator, who was about 50 ft from the lift, moved a panel, the end of the crane trolley struck the railing on the lift and knocked the lift over. Employees #1 and #2 fell approximately 25 ft.
