Foundation Skills

This section describes those language, literacy, numeracy and employment skills that are essential to performance and are not explicit in the performance criteria.

Skills	Description
Learning skills to:	locate appropriate sources of information efficiently.
Reading skills to:	interpret operating procedures from manufacturer and workshop literature for fabricating power hose crimping equipment interpret information from manufacturer and workshop literature when seeking fluid power hose assembly specifications and procedures.
Writing skills to:	legibly and accurately fill out workplace documentation when recording parts and material used.
Numeracy skills to:	measure fluid power hose components use mathematical processes, including addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, to calculate: distances, tolerances, pressures, force, and temperature deviations from manufacturer specifications calculate and convert metric and imperial systems of measurement.
Planning and organising skills to:	plan own work requirements and prioritise actions to achieve required outcomes and ensure tasks are completed within workplace timeframes.
Technology skills to:	use precision measuring equipment, such as vernier calipers and hydraulic pressure gauges use fluid power hose crimping tool.

Range of Conditions

This section specifies work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below.

Safety and environmental requirements must include:	work health and safety (WHS) and occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements, including procedures for: working with fluids under pressure working with stored pressure hazards isolating and stabilising vehicle or machinery environmental requirements, including procedures for trapping, storing and disposing of oil released from hydraulic hoses.
