This unit of competency defines the skills and knowledge required to diagnose, repair and replace diesel engines used in mobile and stationary plant and equipment.

It covers the diagnosis of diesel engine operation to determine location and cause of faults and whether in situ repair, more specialist investigation or engine removal for off-site repair is required. It includes bottom and top end repair of engines and re-installing repaired or replacement engines into stationary and mobile plant.

Where repairs to fuel, coolant, electrical and starting, exhaust systems, as well as transmissions and accessories and their components are required, see the appropriate units.

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

Band: A

Unit Weight: 5

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

(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.
The large diesel engines covered by this unit are used in one or more of the following:	mobile plant agriculture forestry rail marine other transport operations power generation air and gas compression stand by power other industry sectors using large combustion engines
Actions to rectify faults include one (1) or more of the following:	on-site repair, including in an on-site workshop installation of a new or reconditioned engine

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.
