THE TABLE SYSTEM: BASIC STRUCTURAL PRINCIPLE
FINA FLEX
This is a rened interplay between elegant shapes, ligree lightness and convincing stability. Between a unique design
statement and a high degree of adaptability to rooms and situations. And it is the perfect addition to nasoft. That's because
na ex represents the systematic evolution of the idea behind the multiple award-winning seating range.
OVERVIEW TABLE TOPS
The required table or selected table formation has a signicant impact when selecting a matching table top. We basically
dierentiate between three dierent table top types. The exible conference table system is combined with the removable
T-leg frame.
Table tops for individual tables
are ideally suited to seminar or small conference rooms. Thanks to the recessed connection points for attaching the T-legs,
the table tops with two plate ends oer sucient space for seating on both sides.
Connecting table tops and end table tops
are ideal for slotting in to create table formations. Thanks to their internal connection points, the connecting plates can also
be used as table ends. This is particularly recommended when quickly adapting individual table formations for short-term
use in seminars. The connecting plates can also be used as individual tables if required. We recommend using appropriate
end plates in this position to make best use of the space at the table end.
End table tops with retracted base for table systems
are used in table formations to complete a group of tables. The recessed connection point for the T-leg frees up an additional
seating place at the end of the table and, furthermore, also looks better; thanks to the recessed base, the table looks lighter
and more elegant.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
WINNING FORMULA
The modular design of the na ex frame. Speedy and stable: when locked, the four ngers of the connection elements
clamp into the metal plates recessed in the table top. Thanks to the patented mechanism, two table tops can be connected
or separated in just a few simple steps, with no need for tools.
Assembly step 1
Place the table top to be mounted (face down) on a
soft base to prevent scratches to the table surface.
Assembly step 2
With table formations, position the T-leg in such a
way that it projects halfway over the table edge and
snaps into two of the recessed connecting points.
Place the second T-leg in the same position on the
other side of the table top. Now close the levers
positioned on the table top on both T-legs, to secure
the bases in place on the table top. Once this has
been done, the table can be carefully turned over
and placed upright on the legs.
With individual tables, position the T-leg
correspondingly in the two internal connecting
points. Closing the levers secures the T-legs onto the
table top.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Assembly step 3
If you have assembled multiple individual tables
and placed them on the legs, you can connect them
to the matching table tops (with the connecting
points on the edge). To do so, position the table
top's connecting point on the corresponding T-leg
brackets (while open) and close both levers to
secure the table top.
Create your required table formation using the right
table top formats, in line with your ideas.
To make small adjustments to the table tops, both
levers must be slightly opened on the table top you
wish to move. After adjusting the table top, close
the lever to lock the table in the desired position.
Important note
Table tops with recessed connecting points, which
do not extend to the edges, can only be used
as individual tables or as end tables and are not
suitable for connecting multiple table elements
using one T-leg.

ELECTRIFICATION AND CABLING
HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL CABLE ROUTING
There is a black anodised cable duct made of high-grade aluminium for horizontal cable routing under the table top. These
can be axed and removed conveniently, without tools, in a matter of just a few steps. A polished, chrome-plated cable
cover can be used for vertical cable routing. The polished, chrome-plated cable cover routes cables along the column right
to the base of the table frame. Visually, this ideally matches the chrome-plating of the frame.
Foldable cable ducts
When ordering a exible cable duct, the table
tops are supplied with two plastic strips, which
are recessed in the table top. The cable duct is
easily positioned in the four points. The four wing
ttings can now be tightened manually by turning
clockwise, to secure the cable duct to the table
top. To remove the cable duct, the bars are easily
reopened by turning anti-clockwise. This process
also has no need of tools.
Chrome-plated cable cover
A chrome-plated cable cover is used for vertical
cable routing, which routes the cables from the
cable duct or clamp brackets at the table leg,
vertically to the oor. After placing the cables within
the cover, it is fastened to the table using strong
magnets, without the need for any tools.
ELECTRIFICATION AND CABLING
USE OF THE CABLE LID
The two-sided cable lid makes the electrical side of things easy with your na ex table system. It enables quick,
straightforward access to your prole box. By lifting one of the two outer edges, both sides of the cable lid can be opened.
After connecting the cables, you can easily feed the cable ends through one of the two columns to the top of the table.
When closing the cable lid, check that the cable is not trapped either under the sides or under the closing mechanism of the
compartment, to ensure problem-free operation.
Two-sided cable lid
The two-sided cable lid can be easily operated
from two sides of the table, thanks to its innovative
closing mechanism. The cable lid can be easily
opened and closed again by lifting gently. If
required, feed the cable ends through the open
longitudinal edges to the table top surface.
Caution: When closing the cable lid, please
ensure that the cables do not become trapped
between the lateral edges and the table top.
Note: Take the product-specic notes on the
cable lid into account, in line with the current
price list before selecting the desired electrical
system.

MODESTY PANEL
OPTIONAL PRIVACY SCREEN
If ordering a modesty panel, the mechanism for attaching it is already mounted. The modesty panels, which
are 40centimetres high, can be mounted in a matter of moments with no tools and are impact-resistant.
The surface nish can be selected to match the table tops and the screens and is also available in a rounded design.
Assembly step 1
The table must be set on its legs to attach the
modesty panel. Feed in the ends of the bracket into
the preassembled equipment on the table top until
it will go no further.
Assembly step 2
Slide both bars to the left to secure the modesty
panel.
TRANSPORT AND STORAGE CARTS
TRANSPORT AND STORAGE OF THE TABLE TOPS AND TLEGS
We oer practical storage and transport carts from the na ex series to simplify transport and storage of the table tops and
T-legs. Both transport and storage carts are ideally suited for regularly assembling and dismantling your table system, when
converting it to dierent table formations or if you wish to set up your table system in a variety of room spaces.
Transport and storage carts: T-leg
Thanks to matching mechanisms, the T-legs can
be securely locked to the storage carts. The T-legs
stay exactly where they are supposed to, simply by
positioning and locking the four bars, even when
the transport cart is moving. This enables safe,
straightforward transport of the T-leg frames. Up to
ve T-leg frames can be transported and stored with
the help of the transport cart.
Transport and storage carts: table tops
na ex table tops can be easily and securely
transported and stored, thanks to the practical
transport and storage carts from the na ex series.
The table tops are simply positioned between the
spacers on the carts, before and after assembly or
disassembly. This prevents the table top nishes
from being scratched during transport. There is
room for up to eight table tops on the practical
transport and storage cart.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS
CARE
Gentle, proper cleaning of the surfaces of your na ex table system is particularly important to keep it in optimum
condition. The following cleaning instructions are only intended as a recommendation. Brunner GmbH will not be held liable
for damage to the nish caused by improper cleaning.
Cleaning the steel and aluminium frame
With normal use, it is sucient if:
The metal surfaces are wiped down while dry with
a clean cloth. Any particularly dirty areas can be
cleaned with a standard, grease-dissolving allpurpose cleaner. Tarnished areas in the chromiumplating can be polished o with chrome polish.
Never use abrasive cleaning agents, such as toilet
or sanitary cleaners. The gliders' surfaces should be
regularly cleaned of coarse pieces of dirt or deposits.
General cleaning of table tops
Generally speaking, we recommend cleaning with a
lint-free cloth, dampened with pure water without
any added cleaning agent or furniture polish. Then
dry o the surface of the table top with a clean, soft
cloth. Never use silicone-based polishes, strong
ammonia, alcohol or plasticiser-based cleaning
agents. The same applies to abrasive cleaning
agents containing scouring agents.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Cleaning table tops with high-pressure laminate
Our high-quality HPL nishes full the requirements
of DIN 438. To clean, rinse the surface with warm
water and then dry it with a paper towel or soft
cloth. If any soiling remains, use a normal household
cleaning agent, e.g. washing powder, liquid or
solid soap. This should not contain any abrasive
ingredients, as they could lead to changes in the
gloss level and scratches. We recommend leaving
the cleaning agent to work as required depending
on how dirty the surface is. Then wash o with
water and dry. Remove any remnants of the
cleaning agent to prevent streaks from developing.
Please do not use wax-based furniture polish or
cleaning agents, as they are inclined to build up in
the texture of the HPL nish and result in a sticky,
unattractive layer that attracts dirt.
Cleaning table tops with oak or walnut veneer
Clean regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth. With
normal use, it is enough to remove dirt from the
surface once or twice a year with a damp cloth. Use
water mixed with a small amount of commercially
available mild detergent to dampen the cloth.
Then, while the surface is still damp, wipe it with
a soft, clean cloth in the same direction as the
wood grain. Avoid rubbing hard, as this can cause
dierences in nish to occur with matte surfaces.
After lengthy and heavy use, the lacquered surface
can be cleaned with a commercially available
furniture polish. When doing so, please note the
manufacturer's instructions for use and check
compatibility on a small hidden area of your na ex
table system.
