SKILL and KNOWLEDGE: Requires a broad comprehensive knowledge of various machining operations, accepted machine trade methods and techniques, and skill in using any of the conventional and/or computer numerical controlled (CNC) machine tools. Incumbent must also apply knowledge of a wide range of manual welding processes involving oxyacetylene, oxyhydrogen, and other industrial gases, as well as applying a knowledge of various manual arc-welding processes. d. RESPONSIBILITY: Work is performed under general supervision of the Machinist Supervisor or the oversight and guidance of a higher graded Machinist. Assignments are given in the form of work orders, inspection reports, or oral instructions. Independently plans work sequences, selects tools and repair parts, and otherwise carries assignments through to completion, referring only highly unusual and difficult problems to the supervisor. Work is subject to spot check upon completion for acceptability and adherence to instructions and established standards. Guidelines are available for reference, to include technical orders and manuals, manufacturers specifications, factory engineering bulletins, and standard operating procedures. e. PHYSICAL EFFORTS: Physical efforts involve climbing, stooping, standing, bending, stretching, and working in tiring and uncomfortable positions. Requires moderate to strenuous physical exertion including pushing and shoving. Lifts heavy equipment and components weighing up to 40 pounds; and with assistance, lifts items weighing over 50 pounds. f. WORKING CONDITIONS: Works inside and outside, in inclement weather, on icy, wet, and slippery ramps, aircraft surfaces and work stands, and in temperature and humidity extremes. 3

4 Subject to the dangers from exposure to toxic fumes, high pressure air and fluids, fast actuating metal aircraft surfaces such as landing gear, speed brakes, missile doors and flaps; engine noise, heat blast, intake suction, rotating propellers, explosive munitions, electrical voltage cartridge actuating devices, liquid oxygen, and fire or explosion of aircraft fuels, lubricants, paints, and solvents. 4

5 ADDENDUM TO PD# D Machinist, WG OTHER SIGNIFICANT FACTS: Incumbent may be required to prepare for and support the mission through the accomplishment of duties pertaining to military training, military readiness, force protection and other mission related assignments including, but not limited to, training of traditional Guard members, CWDE/NBC training, exercise participation (ORE/ORI/UCI/MEI/OCI/IG, etc.), mobility exercise participation, FSTA/ATSO exercise participation, SABC training, LOAC training, weapons qualification training, participation in military formations, and medical mobility processing within the guidelines of NGB/ARNG/ANG/State/TAG rules, regulations and laws. These tasks have no impact on the classification of this position and should NOT be addressed in any technician s performance standards.

6 EVALUATION STATEMENT A. Title, Occupational Code, and Grade: Machinist, WG B. References: U.S. OPM FWS Job Grading Standard for Machinist 3414, 1/99 U.S. OPM FWS Job Grading Standard for Toolmaker 3416 TS-16, 4/71 U.S. OPM FWS Job Grading Standard for Welder 3703 TS-30, 5/74 C. Background Information: This position description is being updated due to the release of the new Machinist Job Grading Standard referenced above. D. Title, Code, and Grade: 1. Title and Code: The primary purpose of this position is to perform machining operations and welding to accomplish the manufacture and repair of aircraft components, tools, equipment, parts, and special tools. It requires the use of a variety of conventional, non-conventional, and/or computer numerical control machine tools and equipment. Also included in this position are some minor tool making duties. There is a requirement to periodically fabricate tools and jigs, but only for the specific purpose of carrying out duties in the manufacture and repair of aircraft components. The Toolmaker 3416 title and code are not considered appropriate since the purpose of the position is not specifically for fabrication, manufacture, calibration, reconditioning, and repair of machine tools, jigs, fixtures, dies, punches, and gages used in the manufacture, overhaul, and repair of equipment as required by the standard. In addition, there are also welding requirements on this position. However, the Welder 3703 standard is also not appropriate as welding is not the majority of the work, and the welding duties performed are only at the Grade 10 level. Therefore, based on the majority of the work required on this position, the occupational code and title best fit the Machinist 3414 standard at the Grade 11 level. 2. Grade: This position involves a mix of duties in the three series as referenced above, and the majority of the work best fits the Machinist 3414 standard at the Grade 11 level. Although there are also some toolmaking duties required, toolmaking is not the main purpose of this position and only encompasses a very small portion of the duties involved. This position only requires the fabrication of tools and jigs for the specific purpose of carrying out duties in the manufacture and repair of aircraft components and parts. There is not a significant amount of work under the Toolmaker standard to carry the occupational code or grade of this position. There are also welder duties required on this position. However, those duties are at the Grade 10 level of the Welder 3703 standard and do not encompass the majority of the work on this position. 5

7 (a) Skill and Knowledge: This position best fits the Skill and Knowledge requirement at the Grade 11 level of the Machinist 3414 standard. The incumbent applies comprehensive knowledge and skill in using accepted machinist trade methods and techniques, and is required to perform all types of machining operations, independently planning the sequence of operation, laying out work, reading and interpreting blueprints, and determining required adaptation of conventional and specialized machine tools. The incumbent must also apply a knowledge of the effect and relationship of other related work processes (such as welding, which is required on this position) on various machining operations in completing an assignment. This work best fits within the Machinist 3414 standard at the Grade 11 level. (b) Responsibility: The incumbent receives assignments from the Machinist Supervisor or a higher graded Machinist who relies on the technician to independently plan work sequences and carry assignments through to completion, and referring only highly unusual and difficult problems to the supervisor. Work is subject to spot check upon completion for acceptability and adherence to instructions and established standards. The incumbent is expected to make independent decisions, thus having leeway in determining methods and procedures to be used. The responsibility best fits the Machinist 3414 standard at the Grade 11 level. (c) Physical Effort: Physical effort is the same at all grade levels of the Machinist 3414 standard. (d) Working Conditions: Working Conditions are the same at all grade levels of the Machinist 3414 standard. E. Conclusion: Based on the above narrative evaluation, this position is correctly classified as Machinist, WG CLASSIFIER: Gary W. Higgs NGB Personnel Management Specialist Date: 29 Jan
