Investigation Summary
On June 16, 2004, Employee #1, a second shift maintenance worker, was assigned to perform maintenance on the Number 3 Sutton Extrusion press. A coworker assigned to the Number 3 press on the first shift had seen a leak under the shear opening. The coworker on the first shift did not take care of the leak as he was working on another problem with the press. The coworker of the Number 3 press informed the coworker of the second shift of the problem. At the end of each shift, maintenance personal fill out the end of shift check sheet. The leak was noted and the operator looked over his desk into the area of the shear and saw the leak. The operator of Number 3 press saw Employee #1 looking into the area of the leak, standing outside the guarded fenced in area.
