Narrative

An employee was driving a forklift toward a conveyor when he noticed an error light at the tote scanner. He traveled on the lift toward the tote scanning area to manually scan the tote in and clear the error. He attempted but was unable to slow the machine using the plugging method or the dead-man switch. He then attempted to exit the machine. In that process, he struck the racking and his left foot became wedged between the rack and the forklift. He suffered a broken left foot and deep abrasions.
