After he had unstrapped the load, the Truckoman rig moving crew began to unload it using a forklift truck. Whilst the unloading was taking place the driver at the back of the trailer attempted to remove wooden dunnage which separates different levels of the load and allows the forks of the forklift to slide under the piping. In the process of removing the dunnage he caused a pipe to roll which trapped his hand between the pipe and a trailer support stanchion. He managed to remove his hand but not before the crush had injured two fingers of his right hand.
