Investigation Summary
At 10:00 a.m. on March 30, 1991, Employee #1 was testing a new stump grinder. A log had been dumped into the hopper by a front-end loader and he thought it had been completely ground. He looked under the conveyor where he had stuck a piece of a log with a cable hooked to it so that he could pull it out and check the grinding function. For some reason, the 8 in. diameter, 4 to 5 ft long log dropped out of the hopper and fell approximately 2 ft onto Employee #1. He was taken to Rideout Hospital in Marysville, CA, where he was treated for a sore shoulder and then released.
