Investigation Summary
At 6:30 a.m. on August 10, 2023, an employee, the owner of the company, was working alone and was offloading a Komastu PC228USLC - 8 excavator from a Trailboss trailer at a storage yard. After offloading the excavator, the employee was raising the ramps of the trailer into the travel position using chains connected to the bucket of the excavator.
