Investigation Summary
On December 3, 2004, Employee #1, a setter helper, was stacking bricks on a setter table. As he leaned over the spreader table to restack some fallen bricks, the setting head that was in automatic mode lowered and pinned Employee #1 between the bricks and the setting head. The setting head is hydraulic operated and once lowered to a certain point a limit switch is engage, releasing the setting head. It was not determined whether Employee #1 fell free on his own or if the setting head was manually raised onto another conveyor belt, but he then became wedged between the belt and a metal bar that was 7 and 3/4 inches up. Employee #1 was killed.
