What an assessment for MEM27004 must cover

39 assessable components: 3 elements (18 performance criteria), 10 performance evidence and 11 knowledge evidence requirements. An audit-defensible tool maps every question and task back to these — that mapping is the coverage matrix Auditori generates alongside the assessment.

Elements & performance criteria

1 Determine job requirements

1.1Follow standard operating procedures (SOPs)
1.2Comply with work health and safety (WHS) requirements at all times
1.3Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) in accordance with SOPs
1.4Identify job requirements from specifications, drawings, job sheets or work instructions

2 Assess lubrication system operation

2.1Identify lubrication system and lubricant specifications prior to any testing
2.2Undertake system checks safely and to prescribed procedures
2.3Assess lubrication system operation, including condition and appropriateness of lubricant fluid, integrity of lubrication system and condition of components
2.4Determine flows, pressures and temperatures and record
2.5Identify leaks and any sources of contamination
2.6Isolate faults to component level using test equipment and determine appropriate corrective action
2.7Evaluate results of spectrographic or laboratory analysis and make recommendations regarding adjustments to future maintenance activities
2.8Assess auxiliary lubrication systems for correct operation

3 Rectify faulty components

3.1Determine component wear and clearances using appropriate test equipment and manufacturer recommendations
3.2Select replacement components using manufacturers’ data
3.3Remove components and refit to engine
3.4Make final adjustments that bring system in line with specifications
3.5Record test and rectification activities
3.6Ensure engine is free of lubricant leaks after rectification work is carried out

Performance evidence

following work instructions, standard operating procedures (SOPs) and safe work practices
identifying and interpreting specifications, charts, lists, drawings and service documents prior to any testing on engine lubrication systems
conducting operational checks of engine lubrication system and determining and recording oil flows, pressures and temperature using appropriate test equipment
identifying faults of engine lubrication system and determining corrective action
obtaining and interpreting the results of lubricating oil tests and making recommendations to future maintenance activities
checking auxiliary lubrication systems for correct operation in accordance with specifications
undertaking calculations and numerical operations for maintaining engine lubrication systems
checking lubrication system components for wear and clearances using appropriate test equipment to manufacturer specifications
removing/refitting and adjusting lubrication system components and make final adjustments to bring system in line with specifications
recording/reporting test and work activities.

Knowledge evidence

safe work practices and procedures and use of personal protective equipment (PPE)
operation of the lubrication system and procedures for testing/checking lubrication
tests to be undertaken and equipment and techniques to be used to determine oil flows, pressures and temperatures
procedures for: recording lubrication system test results analysing lubricating oil samples and reasons that apply removing/replacing lubrication system components adjusting lubrication systems recording test and repair activities checking lubrication systems for leaks
specifications of the lubrication system components and appropriate corrective action for faulty components
characteristics of lubricants and application of a variety of lubricants
likely causes of a range of out of specification test results and appropriate corrective action to be taken
implications of out of specification test results on maintenance schedules and requirements
reasons for installing auxiliary lubrication systems on diesel plant and equipment
operation of the auxiliary lubrication system
measuring equipment/techniques used to determine lubrication system component wear and clearances.

Questions about assessing MEM27004

What does an assessment tool for MEM27004 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for MEM27004 needs to address all 39 unit components: 3 elements with 18 performance criteria, 10 performance evidence requirements, 11 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 MEM27004?

Auditori pulls the current release of MEM27004 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 MEM27004 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing MEM27004 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 MEM27004, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
