Investigation Summary
Employee #1, a truck mechanic, was removing a starter from a Clark forklift that had been towed into the paint and body shop area. He had jacked up the back of the vehicle and was lying on the floor with his head under the rear of the forklift, loosening the bolts that held the starter in place. A coworker mechanic was helping him from above. The jack slid out from under the forklift and the vehicle fell, crushing Employee #1's head. He was pronounced dead at the scene. No jack stands had been placed under the forklift.
