Investigation Summary
At 2:01 p.m. on June 30, 2023, an employee of Smithfield Grain was riding a manlift up to the seventh floor while escorting an employee of CINTAS who was inspecting fire extinguishers with a grain storage building. The manlift stopped approximately 18 inches above the landing. She pulled the rope that initiated the lift, and she continued over the top of the overhead drive unit and fell seven floors to the first level landing. She sustained blunt force trauma to her head and chest and was reported as dead at the scene. An inspector from the Elevator and Amusement Device Bureau accompanied the CSHO inspector during an evaluation of the lift. It was revealed that the braking mechanism did not engage when the rope was pulled to stop the lift.
