Overhauling marine pantry and galley equipment
Overview
This standard identifies the competences you need to carry out a complete overhaul of marine pantry and galley equipment, in accordance with approved procedures. The equipment to be overhauled will have been removed from the vessel or craft and the overhauling activities may take place in a shipyard or manufacturer's workshop. The marine pantry and galley equipment covered by this standard includes items such as dishwashers, potato peelers, roll and bun dividers, proving ovens, steam ovens, electric ovens, deep fat fryers, mixing machines, slicers, tenderisers, servery counters, salad bars, ready-use refrigeration, ice-cream makers, salt and fresh water supplies and other associated equipment.
The overhauling activities will involve stripping the equipment down to component level, cleaning and inspecting the components for wear, replacing all defective and `lifed' components and rebuilding the equipment in line with the overhauling specification. These activities will include making all necessary checks and adjustments to ensure that components are correctly replaced, positioned, aligned, adjusted, torque loaded, locked and fastened and that the correct sealants are used.
Your responsibilities will require you to comply with organisational policy and procedures for the overhauling activities undertaken and to report any problems with these activities or with the tools and equipment used that you cannot personally resolve, or are outside your permitted authority, to the relevant people. You must ensure that all tools, equipment and materials used in the overhauling activities are removed from the work area on completion of the activities and that all necessary job/task documentation is completed accurately and legibly. You will be expected to work with a minimum of supervision, taking personal responsibility for your own actions and for the quality and accuracy of the work that you carry out.
Your underpinning knowledge will provide a good understanding of your work and will provide an informed approach to applying overhauling procedures to marine pantry and galley equipment. You will understand the dismantling/reassembly methods and procedures used and their application. You will know how the equipment functions, the purpose of the individual components and associated defects, in adequate depth to provide a sound basis for carrying out the overhauling activities, correcting faults and ensuring that the repaired equipment functions to the required specification. In addition, you will have sufficient in-depth knowledge of these components to ensure that they are fit for purpose and meet the specifications, thus providing a sound basis for carrying out reassembly.
You will understand the safety precautions required when carrying out the overhauling activities associated with marine pantry and galley equipment, especially those for lifting and handling the equipment. You will be required to demonstrate safe working practices throughout and will understand your responsibility for taking the necessary safeguards to protect yourself and others in the workplace, both ashore and afloat.
