Unit of Competency AURHTJ003 - Remove, inspect and refit heavy vehicle wheel and tyre assemblies
Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the performance outcomes required to remove, inspect and refit the wheel and tyre assemblies of heavy vehicles. It involves identifying and confirming work requirements; preparing for the work; removing, inspecting and refitting the wheel and tyre assembly; and completing workplace processes and documentation.It applies to those working in the automotive service and repair industry. The wheel and tyre assemblies include those of agricultural machinery, forklifts, heavy commercial vehicles or mobile plant machinery. This unit does not apply to off-the-road tyres of mobile plant machinery.No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

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 heavy vehicle wheel and tyre assemblies that they have worked on 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

manufacturer wheel and tyre assembly specifications

two different heavy vehicles and heavy vehicle wheel and tyre assemblies, including:

disc wheels and tyres

demountable rims, tyres and cast spoke wheels

tools, equipment and materials appropriate for removing, inspecting and refitting heavy vehicle wheel and tyre assemblies.
