Investigation Summary
At 1:30 p.m. on September 18, 2014, an employee was providing instruction to two coworkers on how to successfully offload a lawnmower from a 53 foot trailer. Four tractors were unloaded using a rope with a clasp connected to a metal pallet containing each lawnmower that a Yale gasoline powered forklift pulled to the opening of the trailer. As a fifth tractor was being removed using the same method, the rope became unattached from the pallet and struck the employee in the chest. The clasp at the end of the rope caused blunt force trauma injuries to the employees chest. The employee was killed.
