This is what welcomed me when I arrived back at work after lunch today...
Basically what happened was, the truck is equipped with an overhead rail rack...that we built. It was test fitted on the truck. They were in the middle of removing it to finish welding it.
Well as it turns out, there was a brake line bracket that interfered with the removal of the trestle. So the monkey got under the truck to remove it. Well the bracket is what provides the reaction force for the parking brake. Bracket comes off, parking brake lets go, truck begins to roll, monkey still under truck, truck takes forklift with it. Monkey is not dead, but should be.
So anyway, we strapped the lift to my MIGHTY Liberty, and righted the lift.
There is a decent amount of damage to the brand new truck. There are going to be repercussions when the boss gets back in the office on Thurs......
