Elements and Performance Criteria

1. Prepare for work
   • Workplace instructions are used to determine job requirements
   • Hazards are recognised and precautions are taken according to safety requirements
   • Engineering drawings are sourced that relate to the vehicle or equipment being repaired, manufactured or modified
   • Engineering drawings are checked to ensure they are current and include latest amendments
2. Read and interpret engineering drawings
   • Symbols, codes, legends and diagrams in engineering drawings are identified and interpreted
   • Technical information, material specifications, finishes, dimensions and tolerances are identified and interpreted
   • Product, system and components represented by the drawing are identified and interpreted
3. Apply information from engineering drawings
   • Information from vehicle and equipment engineering drawings is applied to assist in the fabrication, modification and repair of vehicle and equipment systems and components
   • Specific customer and work task requirements are identified as required
   • Manufacturing processes are identified from drawings, and materials are selected according to customer requirements and workplace procedures
4. Complete work processes
   • Work order is prepared according to engineering drawings and workplace procedures
   • Engineering drawings are stored and version control maintained according to workplace procedures
