Abstract: At approximately 3:00 p.m. on April 19, 2004, an employee, a machinist supervisor, was standing on the 36.5 inch level of a hydraulic press. He was making and pressing 4-inch bronze bushings into the underside of the top plate of the press which was at the 100-inch level. The employee was holding a 15.5 pound tool which he used to press the bushings into the holes on the top plate of the hydraulic press. The employee lost his balance and fell over the side of the press onto the floor. The employee suffered serious injury to his head and bruised his shoulder. The employee was hospitalized and treated for a laceration.
