While moving product from one area of the warehouse to another, and as he was approaching an S-shaped route underneath a conveyor, he over-shot a turn. When he attempted to compensate, the lift responded violently and Employee #1 was partially ejected from the operator's compartment. His left leg became crushed between the lift and one of the conveyor's posts and his left foot became pinned beneath one of the lift's wheels. He was hospitalized at Arrowhead Regional Medical Center for foot and leg fractures.
