ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS:
OM are skilled in the installation of propulsion machinery, sea valves, steering gear, anchor handling equipment, elevators, pumps, ventilation fans, cooling coils, refrigeration units, compressors, weapons systems, remote operators, radars, and antennas. In the process of installing this equipment, experience is gained in the use of math, blueprints, precision tooling, and portable machine tools. Outside machinists also become familiar with the procedures for precision line boring, precision alignment of machinery, bearing fitting, machinery assembly, surface machining, precision reaming, and machinery and weapons testing.
KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS, AND ABILITIES
1. Can be relied upon to remove and install small, simple components such as valves, strainers, gages, piping, and other non-complex interferences.
2. Has a complete set of basic hand tools which are kept in good, clean, and safe condition as well as can be expected during and after use.
3. Can be relied upon to remove and install small equipment such as valves and other simple components.
4. Can easily determine and select the proper tools required, and can use those tools properly, safely, and effectively to accomplish their assigned tasks.
5. Can demonstrate complete use of all machinists associated hand tools.
6. Can operate specialized equipment and tooling with proper guidance and instruction.
7. Can properly and accurately take readings from a machinist scale and precision measuring instruments and devices.
8. Can accurately identify instrumentation such as gages and thermometers to monitor operating equipment.
9. Can be relied upon to disassemble and inspect basic machinery components with limited instruction.
10. Intermediate reading, interpreting of blueprints (successful identification of material types, parts, references, applicable views/details).
11. Correctly identifies bolt size, material types and grades.
12. Intermediate understanding of Shipboard engineering systems.
13. Recognizes tooliESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS:
