Investigation Summary
On July 8, 2010, Employee #1 was changing brake parts on a semi-truck trailer. He placed a hydraulic fluid jack under the axle, but did not place a saddle type fitting on the top of the jack lift rod. This fitting was designed to accommodate round objects, such as axles. As he worked, the jack was displaced and the air bag flange fell, striking Employee #1 in his head. He died from traumatic head injuries.
