Source: O*NET 30.3, occupation 51-4022.00 (Forging Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic) — manual nearest-occupation mapping via ISCO group 7221; the official ESCO crosswalk has no entry for this ESCO occupation.
## Task statements
- **[Core]** Measure and inspect machined parts to ensure conformance to product specifications.
- **[Core]** Read work orders or blueprints to determine specified tolerances and sequences of operations for machine setup.
- **[Core]** Start machines to produce sample workpieces, and observe operations to detect machine malfunctions and to verify that machine setups conform to specifications.
- **[Core]** Remove dies from machines when production runs are finished.
- **[Core]** Turn handles or knobs to set pressures and depths of ram strokes and to synchronize machine operations.
- **[Core]** Confer with other workers about machine setups and operational specifications.
- **[Core]** Repair, maintain, and replace parts on dies.
- **[Core]** Set up, operate, or tend presses and forging machines to perform hot or cold forging by flattening, straightening, bending, cutting, piercing, or other operations to taper, shape, or form metal.
