Abstract: On October 13, 2009, Employee #1 was operating a Hazelnut harvester to harvest Hazelnuts. He had apparently stopped at the end of the harvested row and got off the tractor and walked back past the nut harvester machine to the 3.5 ton nut bin trailer; however, he had not turned off the hydraulic system when he left the operator's seat. The 3.5 ton tote bin had two horizontal rotating augers that move the nuts to the rear of the trailer when the bin was nearly full. He was found a few minutes later with his upper body face down in the nut bin, between the bin wall and the auger. His coat and sweat shirt were wrapped so tightly around the auger, suffocating him.
