Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024


This unit describes the performance outcomes required to fabricate and install fluid power hose assemblies. It involves preparing for the task, fabricating, installing and testing fluid power hoses according to relevant industry standards, and completing workplace processes and documentation.

It applies to those working in the automotive service and repair industry. The hose assemblies include those of agricultural machinery, heavy commercial vehicles, mobile plant machinery or outdoor power equipment.

No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)

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 fluid power hose assemblies that they have fabricated and installed, 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 fluid power hose specifications

MDG 41 Guideline for Fluid Power System Safety at Mines

ISO 6805 Rubber hoses and hose assemblies for underground mining

SAE J517 Hydraulic Hose
