**Duty 4: Conducting Dust Parameter Exam**

Learner will demonstrate how to conduct a safe and thorough dust
parameter examination. Learner will also explain the job duties, why
they are conducted, any associated risk, and how to implement
appropriate controls. A thorough examination includes the following job
steps:

NOTE: Some dust parameter exams may be completed in conjunction with
continuous miner pre-op and starting fresh (day shift) activities.

# Duty 16: Non-Routine Tasks/Unusual Activities

Learner will discuss, explain and demonstrate when necessary, proper
procedures for dealing with non-routine tasks or unusual or emergency
situations associated with the operation of the Joy 114CM RC Continuous
Mining Machine with attached mobile bridge haulage. Learner will also
explain the job duties, why they are conducted, any associated risk, and
how to implement appropriate controls. Procedures for dealing with
non-routine tasks, unusual or emergency situations include the following
job steps:
