Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was apparently trying to free up a DH Manure Separator that seemed to be iced up and frozen in place. The machine has two rollers that are approximately 7 inches in diameter and 48 1/2 inches long. The top roller was about 6 ft 7 in. off the ground at its top. Employee #1 was standing on a pile of frozen manure so he could reach the iced area. Whether the rollers were running when Employee #1 started cleaning is not clear: either the machine started up after being de-iced and Employee #1 leaned against it, or he slipped while the rollers were running. He was pulled by his left arm over the top roller and through the rollers and was crushed to death.
