Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was cleaning up hydraulic fluid after repairing a manbasket on a boom lift truck. He was standing on a large toolbox on the truck, approximately 4 ft from the ground. The rear wheels of the boom truck had been placed on jack stands so the tires could be changed, and the truck was parked sideways on a hill that had a slope of approximately 6 degrees. The jack stands on the downhill side gave way, and the boom truck shifted. Employee #1 was thrown, face first, to the ground, fracturing his cheekbone. He was transported by paramedics to Cedar Sinai Hospital.
