Investigation Summary
At approximately 9:05 a.m. on June 6,1994, Employee #1, an industrial truck and tractor equipment operator for General Electric Lighting, was in the process of unloading pallets from a flatbed trailer utilizing an electric Schaeff lift truck. As Employee #1 was maneuvering his lift truck loaded with pallets, the right rear corner of the standup control station (where the lift operator rides) became caught under the bed of the flatbed trailer. While attempting to drive the pinned lift truck from its caught position, the lift truck was inadvertently moved under the trailer. The situation resulted in pinning Employee #1 between the frame of the flatbed trailer and the frame of the lift truck. As a result of the pinning, Employee #1 sustained injuries and was subsequently hospitalized for them. The height of the lift truck frame was 45.875 inches. The height of the flatbed trailer was 46.75 inches. There were no discrepancies with the lift truck which could have contributed to this accident.
