Assessment Conditions
Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.
Assessment must include direct observation of tasks.
Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals must provide evidence that links them to the track type drive and support systems that they have serviced and repaired, e.g. repair orders.
Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.
The following resources must be made available:
- automotive repair workplace or simulated workplace
- workplace instructions
- manufacturer track type drive specifications
- machinery with track type drive and support system requiring service and repair
- track drive system inspection and measurement tools and gauges, including:
- track chain, track link, pin, bushing and track shoe
- undercarriage tensioner, roller, idler and drive sprocket
