Investigation Summary

Investigation Nr: 607499
Event: 08/17/1988
Employee dies after being struck by lumber

Employee #1 was feeding 1 1/4 in. by 6 in. by 30 in. long lumber into a Diehl multi-rip gangsaw, model #99, serial #56-193. When a board got stuck in the saw, Employee #1 apparently tried to free the saw but was unable to do so. He then stood in front of the saw and turned the adjustment wheel without turning off the power. When the adjustment was made and the lumber was cleared by the feedrolls and the non-kickback fingers, the board kicked back and struck him in the abdomen. Employee #1 died the next day.
