Investigation Summary
EMPLOYEE #1 WAS LOADING LARGE PAPER ROLES INTO A SEMI-TRAILER TRUCK AT THE DOCK AREA USING A STAND-UP OPERATION "AUTOMATIC" BRAND ELECTRIC LIFT TRUCK, TYPE E, MODEL FFE30, EQUIPPED WITH A HORIZONTAL POLE ATTACHMENT. EMPLOYEE #1 WAS BACKING UP FROM A STORAGE AISLE INTO AN EAST-WEST CROSS AISLE. AN EASTBOUND HYSTER ELECTRIC LIFT TRUCK EQUIPPED WITH FRONT END CLAMPS, MODEL #E60XL-33 (ON A MODEL #45F-RC-13B TRUCK), COLLIDED WITH THE AUTOMATIC TRUCK, PINNING EMPLOYEE #1 BETWEEN THE CLAMP ATTACHMENT AND THE REAR OF THE TRUCK BACKING OUT INTO THE AISLE. EMPLOYEE #1'S UPPER LEFT LEG WAS PARTIALLY AMPUTATED AND THE ARTERY WAS SEVERED. THE IMMEDIATE APPLICATION OF FIRST-AID PREVENTED EXTREME BLOOD LOSS. THE LEG WAS REATTACHED AND THE PROGNOSIS WAS ENCOURAGING. BOTH VEHICLES HAD FLASHING LIGHTS AND OPERATING HORNS. THE ANNUAL TRAINING OF BOTH DRIVERS IS DOCUMENTED. THE PROBABLE CAUSE WAS INATTENTIVE DRIVING.
