Employee killed when crushed in assembly machine

On September 15, 1991, Employee #1 and two coworkers, of B.O.C. Kalamazoo, were troubleshooting a car door assembly machine that was making bad welds. Once they had determined the problem, one coworker went on break and the other coworker left to return the test gear to the crib. Meanwhile, Employee #1 climbed into the machinery to add hydraulic fluid. The machine was not locked out. While he was in the machine, part of it cycled to the rest position, crushing his chest and neck. Employee #1 died. A willful serious citation was issued.
