Investigation Summary

Investigation Nr: 170210702
Event: 10/22/1993
Employee struck in head and killed by PTO shaft

On October 22, 1993, Employee #1, a dump truck driver for Cadillac Asphalt, was delivering approximately 6 tons of paving material to the job site in a Ford F-700 dump truck. Due to a defective cable, the PTO could not be operated from the truck cab as usual. So for the second time that day, Employee #1 crawled under the truck to operate the PTO lever by hand as his supervisor operated the clutch pedal from inside the cab of the truck. The supervisor operated the clutch as Employee #1 directed, but when the PTO became engaged, its shaft either came loose or broke, striking Employee #1 in the head and killing him.
