Investigation Summary
Employee #1, age 18, was using a hand-held truck-type Dunlair chuck to inflate a LT (light tire) tire and wheel assembly. He had placed the tire on its sidewall on a flat concrete surface, and was seen bending over the assembly when it exploded. Employee #1 suffered severe head injuries and was killed. Causal factors include possible overinflation of the tire or a mismatch of a 16 in. tire with a 16 1/2 in. wheel.
