He raised the boom and operator's station (cab) and climbed under the cab. While he was checking for a leak, the boom cycled down and caught on the cab. Within seconds, the cab and boom cycled to the lowest position and pinned Employee #1 under the cab. He was discovered by coworkers approximately 30 minutes later and pronounced dead at the scene.
