Investigation Summary
At about 8:00 a.m. on May 12, 1994, in Thousand Oaks, CA, Employee #1, a construction helper, was working on the top of a hydro-elevator being installed in a parking garage that was under construction. The hydro-elevator was raised to the 6th floor. Due to a bad thread, the bottom coupling of the cylinder had not been installed properly, which caused the hydro-elevator to lose all its oil. The hydro-elevator descended from the 6th floor to the bottom floor with Employee #1 riding on top. At the bottom floor, he fell off the elevator. He was taken to Los Robles Hospital where he was treated and released.
