MAG Safety Alert – Lifting Chain Nuts Backed Off

Lifting Chain Nuts Backed Off

Two loads of ¾ plywood were being taken down from a skid to be placed on a truck for delivery. While the operator was backing out with the two loads, the forks and the plywood suddenly fell to the ground. The two nuts that hold the lift chain in place had come undone which caused the mast, forks and plywood to free fall to the ground.
