The operator was dismounting his articulated dump truck after cleaning his mirrors/windows and had window cleaner bottle in one hand and a rag in the other. As he came down the steps, his muddy boots caused him to slip and fall to the ground as his hands were occupied with the items he was carrying. Cracked pelvis.
