Investigation Summary
On May 27, 2008, Employee #1 was grinding bars on a 24-in. grinding wheel. The bars were attached to the grinding machine via a C clamp. While grinding the bars, the grinding wheel exploded and the grinder housing was blown apart. The force of the explosion caused the top cover, the left side of the peripheral guard and the work rest to detach from the grinder. The top of the guard struck his head, and other pieces of the grinder and wheel struck his chest. He sustained traumatic injuries that killed him.
