This unit describes the performance outcomes required to fabricate templates for vehicle side windows, mark and cut panels, prepare cut edges, cut glass or perspex, and install the side windows. It involves preparing for the task, selecting and using specialist tools and equipment, selecting materials, checking material quality, sealing and installing side windows according to manufacturer specifications, cleaning and finishing the windows, and completing workplace processes and documentation.
It applies to those working in the automotive glazing service and repair industry.
No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
