He placed the dozer in reverse in an attempt to go down a hill. The dozer stalled when he placed it in reverse, and it began rolling down the hill backwards. He started waving his arms attempting to warn Employee #1, at the bottom of the hill, who never heard him. The dozer struck Employee #1 and traveled another 148 ft before it stopped. Employee #1 received multiple injuries and later died.
