Investigation Summary
At approximately 3:00 p.m. on July 30, 1991, Employee #1 and a coworker were cleaning out a silt-filled crossover at an aqueduct. Employee #1 was operating a Ford CL45 Load Handler front-end loader. As he turned the front loader with the bucket raised to clear the 6 ft high crossover wall, the loader apparently started to tip forward, and his seat belt came loose. Employee #1 was thrown forward and his right foot struck the bucket-lowering control. As the bucket descended, his right foot and leg became caught between the loader frame and the front bucket support assembly. He suffered serious leg and foot injuries, for which he was hospitalized.
