Investigation Summary
On April 30, 2002, Employee #1, a machine operator, requested the assistance of a coworker to operate the controls of a machine while he entered a caged area to troubleshoot a malfunction. The caged area was meant to act as a safeguard to prevent entry while the machine was operating, but Employee #1 had bypassed it. Once inside the caged area, Employee #1 entered the housing for the manipulator (elevator), standing on the topside, and instructed the coworker to raise the manipulator. Unknown to Employee #1 and the coworker, the control station was set for automatic run rather than manual. The manipulator rose quickly and knocked Employee #1 off the raising manipulator to the floor. Employee #1 was hospitalized for his injuries.
