• 2.7Remove, clean and store attachments.

3 Prepare demolition site.

• 3.1Determine and discuss requirements of site demolition plan with team members.
• 3.2Conduct site inspection to determine condition of worksite and surrounds before work begins and amend and approve safe work method statement (SWMS) as required.
• 3.3Obtain confirmation from supervisor and regulatory authorities that all existing above and below ground services have been disconnected.
• 3.4Identify hazardous material for separate handling according to workplace requirements and instructions.
• 3.5Position mechanical equipment and plant in operating locations and arrange appropriate exclusion zone and traffic control.

4 Operate skid steer loader for demolition process.

• 4.1Identify and apply skid steer loader general operating techniques to achieve optimum output while achieving specified tolerances.
• 4.2Identify site hazards associated with skid steer loader demolition operations and follow safe operating techniques to minimise risks.
• 4.3Move skid steer loader safely between work locations, observing codes and traffic management requirements.
• 4.4Implement control measures to manage hazards arising from demolition process according to the demolition plan, safe work methods and regulatory requirements.
• 4.5Assess demolition tasks immediately prior to starting and review SWMS to incorporate management of previously undiscovered hazards.
• 4.6Operate skid steer loader at ground level to remove demolition debris using suitable attachments according to approved demolition plan and current safe work method.
• 4.7Maintain communication with team members during the demolition process.
• 4.8Monitor worksite conditions and progress in consultation with team members and stop work or adjust techniques as required.

5 Carry out machine operator inspection and maintenance tasks.

• 5.1Park and shut down skid steer loader safely and remove attachments.
• 5.2Inspect skid steer loader for faults and remove and replace defective parts.
• 5.3Conduct regular programmed operator maintenance tasks.

6 Clean up work area.

• 6.1Clear work area and sort materials and waste and position for removal, as required, and according to site demolition project environmental management plan.
• 6.2Clean, check, maintain and store maintenance tools and equipment.

What does an assessment tool for CPCCDE3023 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for CPCCDE3023 needs to address all 36 unit components: 6 elements with 34 performance criteria, 1 performance evidence requirements, 1 knowledge evidence requirements, and the foundation skills. A coverage matrix mapping each question and task to these components is what an auditor looks for.

How does Auditori generate an assessment tool for CPCCDE3023?

Auditori pulls the current release of CPCCDE3023 from training.gov.au and generates a complete package: candidate assessment, assessor guide with model answers and observation criteria, and a coverage matrix mapping every component. A suitably qualified person then reviews and approves the draft in a built-in workflow — consistent with ASQA's guidance on AI use in VET — before export as branded PDF and editable Word.

Is the first assessment tool really free?

Yes. Every new account includes one free credit — enough to generate the complete assessment tool for CPCCDE3023 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing CPCCDE3023 assessment instead of generating a new one?

Yes — upload your existing assessment or learner guide and Auditori maps it against every element, performance criterion, PE and KE of CPCCDE3023, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
