Investigation Summary
On July 23, 2009, Employee #1 was sanding on a 40-in. long metal fan shaft that had been fabricated from 2.1875-in. diameter blank metal rod stock. A length of this shaft approximately 3-in. long was chucked into a metal lathe. It was rotated at 800 RPM without the tail stock being utilized to stabilize the spinning shaft. The shaft became dislodged from the chuck and struck Employee #1 in the chest, killing him.
