Investigation Summary
On January 28, 1994, Employee #1 was cleaning dirt off the tailgate of a four yard dump truck from which a sander was suspended. He was brushing dirt off the equipment when his glove became caught in the auger. The auger pulled the employee in, and wrapped his arm around it. He sustained a fracture and severe tendon damage to his right arm. A coworker stopped the auger and called for help.
