Coalcutterman

There were five other fatalities on conveyor faces, involving two fillers, a chargeman,- stoneman, and a coalcutterman.

One was to a coalcutterman who was caught and mutilated by the coalcutter picks whilst the jib was being withdrawn from under the coal.

The cutting chain of a longwall coalcutter was reversed in an attempt to free the jib which had become fast, and an assistant coalcutterman was caught by the moving picks.
