This unit is likely to be carried out under routine supervision with intermittent checking within enterprise guidelines. It requires the application of discretion and judgement to assess and determine requirements for specialist direction, and refer more complex faults for specialist advice.
This unit covers the process of maintaining bores and windmills and defines the standard required to: maintain all components of bores and windmills; carry out testing procedures to determine correct operation; recognise and rectify mechanical faults; carry out repairs to bore, mill heads and pumps to ensure the full function and flow of water supplies; dismantle and assemble windmills and mechanical components; source and apply specialist direction; and refer to bore histories for troubleshooting.
You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)

The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. | |
Service requirements may include: | the pulling of the bore which includes fitting clamps, removing rods and columns the laying out of rods and columns replacing worn or faulty parts checking rods for straightness and checking spacers for wear examining for and noting lime deposits. |
Programmed procedures for the checking of the bore head may include: | checking of the belt condition, glands, pulleys, vibration or noise, slipping, throwing or loose belts, low flows, correct rotation, worn parts and bearings. |
The service and repair of windmills may include: | stripping the windmill, carrying out checks and repairs to mill blades, fan structure, mill head, differential head and gearbox. |
Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
