Final narrative
An employee was changing the motor on a four-bin feeder at the asphalt plant. A small backhoe was parked on ground that was sloped towards the feeder bin and an outrigger had been extended as a safety stop. The employee stepped into the bucket and weight was transferred to the front of the backhoe allowing the outrigger to come off the ground. The backhoe then rolled forward. The employee got caught between the backhoe and the feeder bin and sustained bruising to the upper leg.
