	Assemble parts, fittings, or subassemblies on aircraft, using layout tools, hand tools, power tools, or fasteners, such as bolts, screws, rivets, or clamps.
	Read blueprints, illustrations, or specifications to determine layouts, sequences of operations, or identities or relationships of parts.
	Attach brackets, hinges, or clips to secure or support components or subassemblies, using bolts, screws, rivets, chemical bonding, or welding.
	Inspect or test installed units, parts, systems, or assemblies for fit, alignment, performance, defects, or compliance with standards, using measuring instruments or test equipment.
	Adjust, repair, rework, or replace parts or assemblies to ensure proper operation.
	Cut, trim, file, bend, or smooth parts to ensure proper fit and clearance.
	Fabricate parts needed for assembly or installation, using shop machinery or equipment.
	Layout and mark reference points and locations for installation of parts or components, using jigs, templates, or measuring and marking instruments.
	Clean, oil, or coat system components, as necessary, before assembly or attachment.
	Assemble prefabricated parts to form subassemblies.
	Join structural assemblies, such as wings, tails, or fuselage.
	Position and align subassemblies in jigs or fixtures, using measuring instruments and following blueprint lines and index points.

	Align, fit, assemble, connect, or install system components, using jigs, fixtures, measuring instruments, hand tools, or power tools.
	Set up or operate machines or systems to crimp, cut, bend, form, swage, flare, bead, burr, or straighten tubing, according to specifications.
	Place and connect control cables to electronically controlled units, using hand tools, ring locks, cotter keys, threaded connectors, turnbuckles, or related devices.
	Install mechanical linkages and actuators, using tensiometers to verify tension of cables.
	Clean aircraft structures, parts, or components, using aqueous, semi-aqueous, aliphatic hydrocarbon, or organic solvent cleaning products or techniques to reduce carbon or other harmful emissions.
	Install accessories in swaging machines, using hand tools.
	Mark identifying information on tubing or cable assemblies, using etching devices, labels, rubber stamps, or other methods.
	Verify dimensions of cable assemblies or positions of fittings, using measuring instruments.
	Weld tubing and fittings or solder cable ends, using tack welders, induction brazing chambers, or other equipment.
	Splice cables, using clamps and fittings, or reweave cable strands.
	Fit and fasten sheet metal coverings to surface areas or other sections of aircraft prior to welding or riveting.
	Capture or segregate waste material, such as aluminum swarf, machine cutting fluid, or solvents, for recycling or environmentally responsible disposal.
	Cut cables and tubing, using master templates, measuring instruments, and cable cutters or saws.
	Monitor robotic assembly equipment, such as snake-arm robots, used to assemble, seal, or swage aircraft structures.
