Investigation Summary
At approximately 7:30 a.m. on August 26, 1996, Employee #1 was using a Cat 320 track machine log loader for shovel logging on a 20 percent sloping side hill. As he moved forward to pick up a log, the diagonal from the right front to the left rear tracks was a 45 percent. The right track struck a stump, causing the machine to tip over on its left side. The cab landed on a large stump which broke through the cab door and pinned Employee #1 against the cab wall. He was air lifted to John Day Hospital, where he died.
