At approximately 3:30 p.m. on September 29, 1988, Employee #1, the president of the company, was working on a power Brush Hog mower. The grass cutting machine was suspended in the air by a Clark forklift truck and a Ford model tractor, to which the mower deck was attached by a two point rear suspension hookup. Employee #1 was working under the suspended load when it apparently slipped off the forklift and struck him at the lower portion of his neck. He sustained a broken neck and died. | |||||||
