Range Statement

This section specifies work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below.

Safety and environmental requirements mustinclude:

work health and safety (WHS) and occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements, including procedures for handling shaft and chain driveline oils and lubricants

environmental requirements, including procedures for trapping, storing and disposing of oils and lubricants released from shaft and chain drivelines.


Performance Evidence

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:

diagnose and repair a fault in the following driveline systems of three different motorcycles:
