Investigation Summary
Employee #1, the owner of a construction company, used a Case 350 bulldozer to drag a Caterpillar grader to the rear of his shop. Working alone, he started to fill the grader's tires. He was crouched directly in front of a 12.00-24 8-ply tire when its split locking ring blew off the rim and struck Employee #1 in the face, left arm, and right leg. The force blew him back 13 ft from where he was working. Employee #1 was killed. The tire was showing signs of deterioration from dry rot.
