Investigation Summary
An employee of Staff Electric Co., Inc. was moving a 4,600-lb transformer on four or five 2.875-in. steel rollers. The transformer was moved about 8 to10 in. when it tipped back onto the employee. One of the back rollers kicked out from the back side of the transformer. The transformer landed on the employee's legs, fracturing them. The transformer's center of gravity was towards the back side of the transformer. There were labels on the front and back side of the transformer which indicated from which side to pick the transformer up with a fork lift. The handling instruction for the transformer where located inside the transformer, but did not address the handling of the transformer by manual labor.
