Observe machine operation to detect workpiece defects or machine malfunctions, adjusting machines as necessary. Set up and operate machines, such as lathes, cutters, shears, borers, millers, grinders, presses, drills, and auxiliary machines, to make metallic and plastic workpieces. Inspect workpieces for defects, and measure workpieces to determine accuracy of machine operation, using rules, templates, or other measuring instruments. Read blueprints or job orders to determine product specifications and tooling instructions and to plan operational sequences. Start machines and turn handwheels or valves to engage feeding, cooling, and lubricating mechanisms. Select, install, and adjust alignment of drills, cutters, dies, guides, and holding devices, using templates, measuring instruments, and hand tools. Move controls or mount gears, cams, or templates in machines to set feed rates and cutting speeds, depths, and angles. Position, adjust, and secure stock material or workpieces against stops, on arbors, or in chucks, fixtures, or automatic feeding mechanisms, manually or using hoists. Set machine stops or guides to specified lengths as indicated by scales, rules, or templates. Perform minor machine maintenance, such as oiling or cleaning machines, dies, or workpieces, or adding coolant to machine reservoirs.

Read specifications or blueprints to determine the locations, quantities, or sizes of materials required. Verify vertical and horizontal alignment of structural steel members, using plumb bobs, laser equipment, transits, or levels. Connect columns, beams, and girders with bolts, following blueprints and instructions from supervisors. Hoist steel beams, girders, and columns into place, using cranes, or signal hoisting equipment operators to lift and position structural-steel members. Bolt aligned structural steel members in position for permanent riveting, bolting, or welding into place. Ride on girders or other structural steel members to position them or use rope to guide them into position. Fabricate metal parts, such as steel frames, columns, beams, or girders, according to blueprints or instructions from supervisors. Pull, push, or pry structural steel members into approximate positions for bolting into place. Cut, bend, or weld steel pieces, using metal shears, torches, or welding equipment.
