SUMMARY REPORT

Participating in on-the-job training is a prerequisite for students to pass their course. This will
provide them the chance to put into practice or apply the knowledge they have learnt in school to
real-world training so they can take on the responsibilities of meeting the demands of the business.
Additionally, it prepares students for life outside the walls of the classroom.

Our OJT Training at the Abarico Auto Repair Shop in Brgy. Linao, Ormoc City began on July
11, 2022. Being able to receive training for our future jobs was a wonderful and exciting experience.
The boss himself read some passages from the Bible to begin the first day. After receiving an
introduction to some of the fundamentals, we were given assignments to complete.

My assigned task for the first week was to help work on the under chassis. This includes
removing and repairing brake shoes, shock absorbers, upper and lower bolted joints. Change the oil
filter and air fuel filter. In addition, we hold a round-table discussion concerning the description of the
engine block, its components, and its operation, with the chief mechanic to ensure that we absorb
what we have learned. All the major parts that make up the lower end of the engine are contained
within the engine block, commonly called the cylinder block. Here the crankshaft rotates and the
piston in the cylinder bore vibrates according to the combustion of fuel. Pistons move up and down in
cylinders, turning crankshafts, which drive the wheels when the cylinder heads are mounted on top
of the engine block. An oil pan at the base of the engine block acts as an oil reservoir for the oil
pump to lubricate the moving components. Some engine blocks differ from the way the model/unit
was released. Usually made of aluminum alloy in modern cars, it was usually cast iron in older cars
and trucks. As you know, cast iron is much heavier than aluminum. The identification of some tools
and the introduction of engine parts are also highlights of the first week.

The system used to transmit power from the engine to the wheels is referred to as the
transmission in a car. In assessing the strength and efficiency of your engine systems, this
component of the car is crucial. To determine the transmission’s function depends on what type of
transmission it is. One of them is the automatic transmission. Automatic transmissions typically don’t
use clutches. Instead, the automatic transmission relies on a torque converter to change gears. while
the other transmission is called a manual transmission. Manual transmissions have a clutch pedal and
a shifter that the driver uses to manually change gears. These types of transmissions consist of a set
of gears along a pair of shafts, called the input and output shafts. However, regardless of the type,
the answer to what a transmission does is to enable the gear ratio between the vehicle’s engine and
drive wheels to adjust as the vehicle speeds up and slows down. A new lesson has been imparted to
us by the chief mechanic concerning the transmission on the second week of the training. To assist in
overhauling the 4x4 Multicab and replace its damaged parts, were also included.

From the learning that I got from the last week, I was able to work efficiently on the
installation of the transmission. I first handedly assisted on the installation of it. I also assisted with
under chassis work, inspection, and repair of the engine. Also, this week, together with my co-
trainees, we explored welding. We’re given a chance to have a hands-on experience of welding,
aided by the head welder in the shop. Each one of us takes turns practicing how to do it, and the
work is then evaluated by the chief mechanic and the head welder if we manage to do it correctly.
The next day, the chief paintor shared with us his experience in car painting and body building on
cars. We gain some insight into its field. The first deployment also happened this week. I was
deployed at Ormoc City Government Services Department for clearing and cleaning of the
surroundings for the installation of Grader’s (Mitsubishi MG 330 E) differential.

As the training is going on, the chief mechanic will send two distinct teams: one to CGSD to
install a differential for the Grader (Mitsubishi MG 330 E), and the other to Simangan, Ormoc City to
examine transmissions for Isuzu Forward. This week, I spent the majority of my time at CGSD. I
assisted with the installation of gasket kits, filters, injector nozzles, compressors, and their exterior
coverings, as well as the cleaning and removal of a few attachments from the rear twin axels. In
order for them to be ready when needed, we also collected and organized bolts and nuts. Finally, I
helped with the under-chassis work and the torque converter installation.
 The fifth week was the final week of OJT. The week started with helping clean, clear and
rearrange some of the store's equipment. I was then assigned to Brgy. Simangan for mounting the
transmission. The chief hadn't assigned a deployment, so I stayed in the shop for the next few days.
I helped remove and install multiple transmissions, overhaul the engine, and replace engine belts.
The last day of the OJT was Sir Eddie's 59th birthday. Everyone participated in his humble celebration
and dined their hearts with joy. After the celebration, we graduates thanked him for accepting us and
for letting us gain the best experience that will help us in our future professional lives. I expressed
my gratitude for what I was able to do.

Indeed, on-the-job training was crucial since it helped us build our knowledge, skills and
attitude on work while giving us a taste of the actual work. You become humbled when you associate
with different and competent individuals. Additionally, completing your allocated task effectively and
with due consideration makes you a valuable worker in the industry.
