Employee's jaw fractured when caught by descending elevator

Employee #1, an elevator installer/licensed mechanic with Basone Elevator Co., was installing a hydraulic elevator. He was in a 4 ft deep pit with the bottom of the elevator just above his head. Employee #1 reached out from between the elevator and the door sill and pushed the "down" button on the hard wired remote control box. The elevator descended and caught Employee #1 in the shear point between the base of the elevator and the door sill. Suffering a fractured jaw, Employee #1 was taken by paramedics to UCLA Medical Center, where he was hospitalized for three days.
