Investigation Summary
At 4:15 p.m. on May 9, 2015, a 58 year old mechanic was putting a chain around a log which had jammed the portable chipper positioned on an 18-wheeler-type trailer. The feed roller was lifted above the mill drum in a bound position. The employee entered between the feed roller and the mill drum. Gravity brought the unlocked feed roller down and crushed the employee against the mill drum. A coworker turned the machine on to lift the feed roller from the employee. The employee's lower body was crushed and mauled from the rotating roller. The employee's right leg was almost severed and he sustained fractures to his right arm, pelvis, and chest. He was killed.
