Abstract: Employee #1, of Magnolia, AR, was working his route, which involved servicing pumping stations. While adding oil to the engine at the Birdsong #1 pumping station, he became caught between the belts and pulleys of the engine's power transmission apparatus. Employee #1 was killed. Apparently the pumper's weights stopped in the upside position, then reversed and went toward the bottom, releasing him. When Employee #1 did not return home that night, coworkers retraced his route and found him on the ground between the engine and the pump mechanism supports.
