Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was replacing the knives on a chipping machine that had not been locked out. When Employee #1 crawled into the point of operation of the chipping machine, the electric eye sensed his presence and activated the hydraulic clamping devices that normally hold a log in place during the chipping process. These devices crushed Employee #1, and he died from these crushing injuries.
