Investigation Summary
Employee #1, a farm worker with 35 years of experience, was at a residential site removing an obstruction from under a Bush Hog. He was under the unit when it began to roll, pinning him underneath. He died of asphyxia. There were no witnesses to the accident, but Employee #1 had apparently failed to use blocks to lockout a known defect in the hydraulic mechanism of the tractor.
