Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.
Elements Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance Criteria Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. Where bold and italicised text is used, further information is detailed in the range of conditions section. |
1. Prepare to select tyres and wheels for specific applications | 1.1 Job requirements are determined from workplace instructions 1.2 Tyre and wheel information is sourced and interpreted 1.3 Options are analysed and those most appropriate to the circumstances are selected 1.4 Hazards associated with the work are identified and risks are managed |
2. Select tyres and wheels for specific applications | 2.1 Tyre and wheel options are analysed to identify technical compliance and economic benefits 2.2 Tyres and wheels are selected according to manufacturer specifications, workplace procedures, relevant Australian Design Rules, and customer requirements |
3. Complete work processes | 3.1 Selection is provided to appropriate personnel or customer as required and according to workplace procedures 3.2 Workplace documentation is processed according to workplace procedures |
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.
Tyres and wheels must include: | tubeless and tubed tyres bias ply and radial ply tyres directional tyres steel wheels alloy wheels. |
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:
select the tyres and wheels of four different light vehicles to suit specific customer requirements, in which the work must involve accessing and interpreting information in manufacturer specifications relating to the selection.
Individuals must be able to demonstrate knowledge of:
Australian Design Rules relating to light vehicle tyres and wheels
light vehicle tyre fitment guide
light vehicle tyre and wheel assembly terminology and codes
light vehicle tread patterns, and tyre and wheel assembly types
specific tyre applications for varying terrain, soil and weather conditions.
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 light vehicle tyres and wheels that they have selected, 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 specifications and tyre and wheel fitment guide
Australian Design Rules relating to light vehicle tyres and wheels
four different light vehicles for the selection of tyres and wheels
equipment and material appropriate for selecting light vehicle tyres and wheels for specific applications.
Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
