The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included. |

Work order is to include: | instructions for reconditioning guides in designated equipment and may include: instructions for the environmental monitoring of work and procedures environmental care requirements relevant to the work |
Appropriate personnel may include: | supervisors suppliers clients colleagues managers |
Guides | are alloys secured to a carrier which provide straightness and smooth running of the blade by supporting it, not allowing it to move too far to the left, right or back |
Reconditioning is to include: | grinding the guide surface to restore it to a smooth flat surface machining the guide surface to restore it to a smooth flat surface |
Equipment may include: | grinding equipment metal lathes milling machines |
Communication may include: | verbal and non-verbal language constructive feedback active listening questioning to clarify and confirm understanding use of positive, confident and cooperative language use of language and concepts appropriate to individual social and cultural differences control of tone of voice body language |
Grinding | is the process of removing metal to restore a metal surface using grinding equipment |
Machining | is the process of removing metal to restore a metal surface using metal lathes or milling machines |
Dressing | is the process of cleaning or shaving the top surface of the grinding wheel to remove the build up of old sharpening metal and coolant |
Sharpening | is the process of grinding and honing the cutting bits in metal lathes or milling machines |
Scored material is to include: | guides which are deeply scratched or scraped by: irregular running of the blade poor operation of the saw blunt or un-tensioned blade |
Speeds and feeds | is the speed the grinding wheel rotates or machine cuts at, too fast and it may burn the metal, too slow and it may produce a rough finish or grab the guide power feed controls movement of the guide to the desired rate |
Geometry | is the pitch and angle that a guide is ground or sharpened at, allowing for the material being reconditioned |
Disposing of may include: | recycling guides that cannot be reconditioned re-using guides that cannot be reconditioned |
Records and reports may include: | reconditioning inspection storage locations quality outcomes hazards incidents equipment malfunctions and may be: manual using a computer-based system or another appropriate organisational communication system |
Carrier | is the saw attachment which holds the guide in place by the saw blade |
Tolerance | is the amount of space between the back of the blade and the guide to avoid the blade striking the guide |
Clearance | is the amount of space allowed for left and right movement |
