Before competency can be determined, individuals must demonstrate they can perform the following according to the standards defined in this unit’s elements, performance criteria, range of conditions and foundation skills:
assemble and fit three different components from one of the following braking systems:
hydraulic
pneumatic over hydraulic
vacuum over hydraulic
electric

pneumatic.
Individuals must be able to demonstrate knowledge of:
work health and safety (WHS) and occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements relating to assembling and fitting brake system components, including procedures for:
lifting and supporting vehicles
handling and controlling brake dust and brake fluids
environmental requirements, including procedures for trapping, storing and disposing of brake dust and brake fluid released during assembly and fitting process
operating principles and construction of the following braking systems:
hydraulic
pneumatic over hydraulic
vacuum over hydraulic
electric
electric over hydraulic
pneumatic
procedures and techniques for assembling braking system components
procedures and techniques for fitting and testing braking system components.
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 braking systems and components that they have assembled and fitted, 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
braking system component manufacturer specifications
components of the braking systems specified in the performance evidence
vehicles requiring the fitting and assembly of the braking systems specified in the performance evidence
equipment, hand and power tooling appropriate for assembling, fitting and testing braking systems and associated components.
