Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was tailing a Cornell edger (gang saw), serial #SE18667, in a sawmill. He was responsible for removing trash, slabs, and cants from between the outfeed of the gang saw and the roller feed table for the trim saw. He was provided with a metal hook for removing material. He bent down between the outfeed and the roller feed table (34 1/2 in. opening) to remove trash. The gang saw operator saw Employee #1 standing beside the outfeed and put a cant (board) on the infeed table to feed into the gang saw for 1 in. by 6 in. lumber and then went to remove stacked boards on the belt with boards being returned to the front. Employee #1, who was wearing a hard hat, was hit on the head by the board coming out while he was bent down. He died the next day.
