Investigation Summary
At approximately 1:00 p.m. on September 26, 1994, Employee #1, of Robinson Enterprises, Inc., was operating a Caterpillar D7G with a dozer blade on the front and a winch on the rear. He was skidding logs on a logging side in Plumas National Forest. Employee #1 was waiting for the choker setter to hook the cables from two logs when a nearby tree was felled and landed across the skidder's cab. The ROPS was crushed, which, in turn, crushed and killed Employee #1. The choker setter saw the tree falling and moved to the front of the tractor. Because he jumped under the radiator area, he was not injured. Employee #1 and the choker setter were working too close to the fallers.
