Investigation Nr: 14571186
Event: 08/21/1986
EMPLOYEE KILLED WHEN HEAD CRUSHED BETWEEN MACHINE & CEILING

An electric utility employee was unloading a Turfco Manufacturing oscillatory pipe and wire plow (Model No. 140A, Serial No. 584016) from inside a company van. While backing the machine out of the van, the employee apparently lifted the plow portion of the machine, causing a lever to become wedged against the ceiling. The machine continued to move, causing the handlebars to lift up. The employee's head was crushed between the handle bars and ceiling. He died of his injuries.
