What an assessment for AURTTX106 must cover

31 assessable components: 4 elements (16 performance criteria), 1 performance evidence and 8 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 6 foundation skills. 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 Prepare to diagnose and repair heavy vehicle hydrostatic transmission

  • 1.1Identify job requirements from workplace instructions
  • 1.2Identify required information for diagnosis activity
  • 1.3Analyse diagnostic options and source testing strategy to identify cause of fault using workplace and manufacturer procedures

  • 1.5Identify tools and equipment required for testing strategy and establish serviceability according to workplace procedures

2 Diagnose heavy vehicle hydrostatic transmission

  • 2.1Implement diagnostic tests set out in testing strategy according to manufacturer and workplace procedures, and workplace health and safety requirements
  • 2.2Identify cause of fault through analysis of diagnostic test results
  • 2.3Confirm and report cause of fault according to workplace procedures
  • 2.4Develop and report recommendations for necessary repairs according to workplace procedures

3 Repair heavy vehicle hydrostatic transmission

  • 3.1Identify required information for repair activity
  • 3.2Identify tools, equipment and materials required for repair activity and establish serviceability according to workplace procedures
  • 3.3Carry out repairs according to workplace and manufacturer procedures, manufacturer specifications, workplace health and safety and environmental requirements
  • 3.4Carry out post-repair testing according to workplace procedures, workplace health and safety and environmental requirements

4 Complete work processes

  • 4.1Conduct final inspection according to workplace procedures and confirm vehicle is ready for use
  • 4.2Clear work area and dispose of or recycle materials according to workplace procedures
  • 4.3Complete documentation according to workplace procedures

Performance evidence

  • diagnose and repair a fault in the hydrostatic transmission systems of two different vehicles or machinery, including in three of the following components: • charge pump • main pump • drive motor • hydraulic lines • heat exchanger • control valve.

Knowledge evidence

  • methods to locate and interpret information required to diagnose and repair hydrostatic transmissions, including: • information provided by customers and supervisors • manufacturer specifications and procedures or equivalent documentation
  • workplace procedures required to diagnose and repair hydrostatic transmissions, including: • establishing serviceability of tools and equipment • documentation procedures • housekeeping procedures, including: • examination of tools and equipment • storage of equipment • identification, tagging and isolation of faulty equipment • disposal of excess materials • recycling procedures
  • workplace health and safety (WHS) requirements relating to diagnosing and repairing hydrostatic transmissions, including procedures for: • working with high pressure and stored energy hazards • isolating and stabilising machines
  • environmental requirements relating to diagnosing and repairing hydrostatic transmissions, including procedures for trapping, storing and disposing of fluids released from hydrostatic transmissions
  • operating principles of hydrostatic transmissions and associated components, including: • closed loop • charge circuitry • flushing circuit
  • purpose and operation of hydrostatic transmissions and components, including: • charge pump • main pump, including pilot control systems • drive motor, including control systems • filtering • hydraulic lines • heat exchanger • reservoir
  • diagnostic testing procedures for hydrostatic transmissions, including: • testing charging system • testing closed loop system • testing flushing system • measuring case drains • testing internal and external fluid leaks • checking abnormal noises and operation • using scan tools and multimeter
  • repair procedures for hydrostatic transmissions, including procedures for: • isolating faults • dismantling components and parts • inspecting and evaluating worn components • repairing and replacing parts • post-repair flow and pressure testing procedures for hydrostatic transmissions.

Foundation skills

  • Learning: • Locates required sources of information efficiently • Develops a sequenced plan for a specific task
  • Reading: • Organises and interprets technical information from workplace procedures, manufacturer procedures and manufacturer specifications
  • Oral communication: • Clarifies instructions • Obtains information from customers and supervisors
  • Numeracy: • Measures hydrostatic transmission components • Uses mathematical operations • Calculates distances, areas and tolerances • Calculates deviations from manufacturer specifications
  • Planning and organising: • Plans own work requirements • Prioritises actions to achieve required outcomes • Ensures tasks are completed within workplace timeframes
  • Technology: • Uses specialised diagnostic equipment

Questions about assessing AURTTX106

What does an assessment tool for AURTTX106 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for AURTTX106 needs to address all 31 unit components: 4 elements with 16 performance criteria, 1 performance evidence requirements, 8 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 AURTTX106?

Auditori pulls the current release of AURTTX106 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 AURTTX106 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing AURTTX106 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 AURTTX106, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
