3.4 Locations of all emergency shutdown buttons and triggers are known

3.5 All processed product is stacked and packed in bundles

Evidence of the ability to:

set up and efficiently operate a machine to produce THREE different sewn products according to job specifications, listed performance criteria, and within production timeframes

demonstrate all safety devices on the machine.

If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.

To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:

explain work health and safety factors for setting up the machine

establish effect of sewing in the wrong position
