Work involves most of the following: Planning and performing difficult machining operations; processing item s requiring complicated setups or a high degree of accuracy; using a variety of precision measuring instru m ents; selecting feeds, speeds, tooling, and operation sequence; and making necessary adjustments during operation to achieve requisite tolerances or dimensions. May be required to recognize when tools need dressing, to dress tools, and to select proper coolants and cutting and lubricating oils. For cross-in du stry wage study purposes, m achine-tool operators (toolroom) in tool and die jobbing shops are excluded from this classification. MAINTENANCE PIPEFITTER Installs or repairs water, steam, gas, or other types of pipe and pipefittings in an establishment. Work involves most of the following: Laying out work and measuring to locate position of pipe from drawings or other written specifications; cutting various sizes of pipe to correct lengths with chisel and hammer or oxyaqetylene torch or pipe-cutting machines; threading pipe with stocks and dies; bending pipe by hand-driven or power-driven machines; assembling pipe with couplings and fastening pipe to hangers; making standard shop computations relating to p ressu res, flow, and size of pipe required; and making standard tests to determine whether finished pipes meet specifications. In general, the work of the maintenance pipefitter requires rounded training and experience usually acquired through a form al apprenticeship or equivalent training and experience. Workers prim arily engaged in installing and repairing building sanitation or heating system s are excluded. MAINTENANCE S H E E T -M E T A L WORKER Fabricates, installs, and maintains in good repair the sheet-m etal equipment and fixtures (such as machine guards, grease pans, shelves, lockers, tanks, ventilators, chutes, ducts, metal roofing) of an establishment. Work involves most of the following: Planning and laying out all types of sheet-m etal maintenance work from blueprints, m odels, or other specifi cations; setting up and operating all available types of sheet-m etal working machines; using a variety of handtools in cutting, bending, forming, shaping, fitting, and assembling; and installing sheet-m etal articles as required. In general, the work of the maintenance sheet-m etal worker requires rounded training and experience usually acquired through a form al apprenticeship or equivalent training and experience. MILLWRIGHT Installs new machines or heavy equipment, and dismantles and installs machines or heavy equipment when changes in the plant layout are required. Work involves most of the following; Planning and laying out work; interpreting blueprints or other specifications; using a variety of handtools and rigging; making standard shop computations relating to str e sse s, strength of m aterials, and centers of gravity; aligning and balancing equip ment; selecting standard too ls, equipment, and parts to be used; and installing and maintaining in good order power transm ission equipment such as drives and speed reducers. In general, the m illw right's work normally requires a rounded training and experience in the trade acquired through a form al apprenticeship or equivalent training and experience. MAINTENANCE TRADES HELPER A s s is ts one or m ore workers in the skilled maintenance trades, by performing specific or general duties of le sse r skill, such as keeping a worker supplied with m aterials and tools; cleaning working area, machine, and equipment; assisting journeyman by holding m aterials or tools; and per forming other unskilled tasks as directed by journeyman. The kind of work the helper is permitted to perform varies from trade to trade: In some trades the helper is confined to supplying, lifting, and holding m aterials and tools, and cleaning working areas; and in others he is permitted to perform specialized machine operations, or parts of a trade that are also performed by workers on a full-tim e basis. TOOL AND DIE MAKER Constructs and repairs m achine-shop tools, gauges, jig s , fixtures or dies for forgings; punching, and other m etal-form ing work. Work involves m ost of the following: Planning and laying out work according to m odels, blueprints, drawings, or other oral and written specifications; using a variety of tool and die m aker's handtools and precision measuring instru m ents; understanding of the working properties of common metals and alloys; setting up and operating of machine tools and related equipment; making necessary shop computations relating to dimensions of work, speeds, feeds, and tooling of machines; heat-treating of m etal parts during fabrication as well as of finished tools and dies to achieve required qualities; working to close tolerances; fitting and assembling of parts to prescribed tolerances and allowances; and selecting appropriate m aterials, tools, and p ro cesses. In general, the tool and die m aker's work requires a rounded training in m achine-shop and toolroom practice usually acquired through a form al apprenticeship or equivalent training and expedience.
