Investigation Summary
On May 30, 2009, Employee #1 was grinding rust spots on a hydraulic tilt body recycling truck, in preparation for painting. As Employee #1 accessed the area between the frame of the truck and the bottom portion of its raised rails of the dump body, the hydraulic release lever was activated. The rails of the dump body lowered, pinning him between the body of the truck and its frame. Employee #1 was later discovered by a coworker. Employee #1 was transported to a local hospital, where he died.
