Summary Nr: 170617468 | Event: 10/08/1996 | Employee Injured When Caught By Ram Of Cotton Pusher | ||||
Employee #1 was working at a cotton gin when the cotton pusher, the machine that brings the cotton down into the baler, became stuck. He shut down the system and locked it out electrically; however, he did not shut off the air pressure and bleed down the line before getting into the cotton pusher to free up the ram. Employee #1 had cleared the ram when it moved back suddenly, catching his upper torso and right arm against the frame of the machine. Employee #1 sustained injuries that required hospitalization. | ||||||
