Investigation Summary
On October 30, 2008, Employee #1 and a coworker were attempting to unclog a bin packer. The coworker was operating a powered industrial lift truck (a Crown Lift Truck-Electric, Serial Number 9A131912, Unit Number 8624, Model: FC4020-60 TT180). Employee #1 placed a plastic pallet on the forks of the lift truck and then stepped onto the pallet. He then asked the coworker to raise the pallet to where the bin packer was jammed. To obtain a better position to unjam the clogged bin, Employee #1 asked him to move the forklift backwards and lower the pallet. As the lift truck moved, Employee #1 lost his balance and fell approximately 15 ft to the concrete floor. He struck the floor and sustained shoulder and neck injuries. Employee #1 was transported to a medical center, where he received treatment and was hospitalized.
