Investigation Summary
At 10:00 a.m. on January 23, 2014, an employee was repairing the back-up alarm switch located under the drivers seat of a track skid steer. Premature activation of the drive system by the employee caused his foot to slip off the track and get caught under the track, crushing it. The track then pulled in the employee, crushing his right upper torso and the right side of the employees head. The employee was killed.
