Investigation Summary
At approximately 2:00 p.m. on July 15, 2008, Employee #1 and #2 were working from a Genie Scissorlift at a height of approximately 26 ft high. They had been using a DeWalt Roto Hammer Drill plugged into a yellow extension cord that extended from the lift to the concrete floor and across to a spider box located approximately 30 ft away. Coworker #1 backed a forklift away from the lift, made a Y-turn and proceeded forward. He heard Employee #1 and #2 shouting, turned his head to look behind him and saw the lift falling over. Coworker #2 turned around and saw the yellow extension cord tangled up in one of the forklift wheels. Employees #1 and #2 rode the lift to the ground and were hospitalized with multiple fractures.
