Assessment 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 manual
transmissions that they
8

AURLTX001 Diagnose and repair light vehicle manual transmissions
have worked on, 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 light
vehicle manual
transmission
specifications
 Two different light
vehicles with faults
in the manual
transmission
components
specified in the
performance
evidence
 Diagnostic
equipment for light
vehicle manual
transmissions
 Tools, equipment
and materials
appropriate for
repairing light
vehicle manual
transmissions.
Resources required Learning Resources
available to students
include:
 Automotive
Technology (A
System Approach)

Results/Re-assessment  The Assessor will
grade the
assessment and

AURLTX001 Diagnose and repair light vehicle manual transmissions
record the result
on the front page
of this document
(S) – Satisfactory
if all observable
behaviours are
correct and (NS)
not satisfactory if
any areas are left
incorrect
 Feedback will be
provided on either
result
 Where a student
receives a ‘NS –
Not Satisfactory’
result, the
assessor will
discuss the area of
the non-compliant
observable
behaviour and an
opportunity given
for re-assessment.
This may be
through direct
observation or a
different method of
assessment e.g.
verbal/oral
questioning,
problem solving
exercise.
 If the outcome is
again not
satisfactory the
student result will
be deemed (NYC)
not yet competent.
Additional
feedback will be
given, and a time
agreed upon for
further
assessment after
additional training
and skills practice
has taken place,
this information
will be recorded,
dated and signed
in the re-
assessment area
on the last page of
this document

Assessment 1 – Questioning
Written Assessment
1. Identify five (5) important items of personal safety when working on manual transmissions in an automotive
workplace?
1 Helmet offers protection from head injuries which are very lethal.
2 Safety Glasses are important for manual transmission of workplace.
3 Mask wearing a mask will protect the workers from hazardous air participants.
4 Protective Gloves are important for protection of injuries in hands.
5 Safety shoes provide solid protection to the feet.
2. List three (3) precautions when jacking a vehicle on the floor.
1 Never jack up the vehicles without blocking the wheels to prevent them from rolling.
2 Do not do this in free way or main road.
3 After completing the process replace the jack and remove the stands and lower the vehicle to the ground.
3. Why should safety stands be placed under a raised vehicle?
The safety stand provides the stability to the vehicle when it is raised at a certain height. This is because the Jack
does not provide enough stability when a person in under the car. No other substitute of the safety stand should be
used as it can be dangerous.
4. What precautions should be observed if a vehicle is to be raised on a hoist?
1 Inspect the lifting points of the vehicle and the hoist before it is raised this will ensure safety of the car.
2 Make sure that the vehicle lift is not exceeding the maximum capacity.
3 Do not rely on a single lift arm of the hoist as it is not able to bear all the vehicle weight.
4 Try to use the auto lifting features as it will prevent sudden lowering of the cars.
5 Make sure that the lift maintenance has been done of the hoist.
Multiple choice. Circle all the correct answer
5. When using lifting equipment, what does SWL stand for?
A. Safe weight lift.
B. Safe working load.
