Abstract: On August 4, 1999, Employee #1 was operating a Johnson Tomato Harvester. Employee #1 had climbed from the operator's seat to atop the harvester to remove vines from the vine take-away without stopping the engine and disengaging the shaker. After removing the vines, Employee #1 began to move back toward the operator's seat. While doing so, Employee #1 slipped and his foot got caught between the conveyor chain and the rotating shaker and, consequently, his ankle was crushed. Employee #1 was hospitalized.
