Investigation Summary
An employee had started the two motors on a Dandy Digger. This machine is used to bore holes for the installation of fencing. He left the operators position to conduct a walk around inspection of the machine. While walking in front of the rotating auger, he slipped and fell. His gloved left hand was caught by the auger and he was pulled into the auger. The auger then caught his shirt and wrapped him around the auger. He was hospitalized with 17 fractures of the rib cage, a severe laceration of his left ear and severe contusions to his left side.
