Mechanic Repairing Machine Fractures Foot

At approximately 7:00 p.m. on June 30, 2009, a worker was employed by a company that manufactured snack foods. The worker was troubleshooting a packaging machine (Douglas Universal Auto Case Packer, Model UACP, and Serial Number M-408150). He needed to repair the "flap retrieval fingers", which did not open or close. The power on the machine had to be "ON" in order to troubleshoot the problem. The interlock switch was by-passed by using a magnet to keep the power "ON." A coworker was on the control, and he asked the worker to push the "flap retrieval fingers" assembly up with his hand. As he was pushing the assembly up, the machine moved and his left foot got caught between the carriage and the "box pusher", causing multiple fractures to his foot. The worker required surgery and hospitalization for two days.
