Assessment task 1: [title]      Due date:

(add new lines for each of the assessment tasks)

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.

This field allows for different 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.
Levelling and/or alignment proceduresinclude one (1) or more of the following:	face and rim reverse indicator use of jacking bolts and shimming material use of levelling equipment thermal expansion checks
Equipment includes one (1) or more of the following	machines components assemblies sub-assemblies
Levelling and alignment devices/equipment include one (1) or more of the following:	precision levels spirit levels line levels optical levels electronic levels laser levels dial indicators special type dial indicator fixtures magnetic bases straight edges feeler gauges bench centres vee blocks plumb line folding wedges straight edges shimpack materials dumpy levels

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.
