Investigation Summary
On October 11, 2002, Employee #1 and a coworker were setting up a cable logging machine and delimber. A shiv that supported a guy line had slid to the back of the guy line and stuck. The back of the boom and guy line was elevated to a 30-degree angle and the shiv remained stuck. Employee #1 did not realize the shiv was stuck above the area where he needed to work. As Employee #1 was trying to line up the bolt holes, he had the operator move the boom. The boom movement dislodged the shiv, which slid down the guy line and struck Employee #1 on the back of his head. Employee #1 fell from the machine to the ground below, approximately a 5-foot fall. Employee #1 was treated by medical personnel and transported to a local hospital where he was admitted overnight for medical treatment.
