This photograph is drawn from an instructional manual produced at the Collingwood Campus, Northern Metropolitan College of TAFE, in 1989.
The image shows teacher, Ian Roberts, using a screwdriver to sound check the smooth running of bearings after re-assembling a pump, at the Collingwood Campus of TAFE. The manual is a fine example of desktop publishing from the time and consists of a plastic ring bound folder with paper pages in plastic sleeves. Each page contains a pasted in photograph and computer printed instructions. This edition was available for student loan and its purpose was to show how to dismantle a pump, manufacture a new shaft to specifications using a small cylindrical grinder, and then re-assemble the spindle and vee belts so that all components operate smoothly. It was decommissioned from the Melbourne Polytechnic library service in 2017.
