BA-077/1EN M6X.20XX

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

D - Safety information

•

Only use sharp, clean drill bits.

•

Particular care must be taken when working on sections that jut out over the work top. Attach a larger work table or use extensions.

Work pieces should not affect the stability of the assembly machine. Work pieces should be secured against tipping or falling. Use

suitable clamps or support brackets. Operating elements must remain accessible and their accessibility should be not obstructed.

•

Secure the work piece during drilling/insertion. Use the assembly machine clamps or if these are not sufficient for the particular job,

use suitable clamping equipment.

•

Wear appropriate work clothing.

•

You should always check that all safety devices and machine parts are functioning properly before use. Replace damaged parts

with original Blum parts.

•

Make sure that no other tools or objects are on the work table aside from your work piece before turning on the assembly machine.

D.5 - Noise emission

Noise emission levels as per EN ISO 11202 (11204) are:

Work place noise level is (work cycle): 80.4 dB(A) (measured at a height of 1.5 m and at 1 m forward of the worktable edge. The ambi-

ent correction factor K3A is 4 dB and is calculated according to EN ISO 11204 Appendix A. The difference between the extraneous

noise level and the sound intensity level at each measuring point is > 6dB)

The specified values are emission values, which means that they are not necessarily safe workplace values at the same time. Al-

though there is a correlation between emission and emission values, the necessity of additional precautions cannot be deduced with

certainty. Factors liable to influence current emission levels in the workplace include the length of exposure, the characteristics of the

workroom, and other noise sources. Also, admissible workplace levels may vary from country to country. The information provided

here is designed to enable users to assess the hazards and risks involved more accurately.

D.6 - Dust emission

If connected properly to a dust extraction system, dust emissions fall clearly below the technical standard value. The assembly ma-

chine is equipped with a connecting piece for hoses with an inside diameter of 100 mm. This provides negative pressure of 2000 Pa

for the maximum required average air velocity of 20 m/sec. If there is no extraction system connector with a diameter of 100 mm, the

supplied adapter can be used. For connection, make sure that a minimum air velocity of 20 m/sec is provided at the cross-section of

the 100 mm hose.

• The assembly machine must be connected to a dust extraction system. (The extraction system connection must be flexible and

flame resistant)

• Regularly remove remaining dust and chips using a vacuum cleaner.

• The scale is symmetrical starting from the 0 point going to 850 mm

• This ruler can be used universally for vertical drilling

4.4.3) R ruler: MZL.2010 Reversible ruler

• One-sided scale starting from the 0 point to 850 mm

• This ruler is installed one-sided either on the right or left.

It must be reversed to drill right or left pieces.

This makes the results more exact since the stops only need to be set once.

•

0 point setting

The 0 point can be set to compensate for differences between the door dimension

and the cabinet dimension. The stops thus do not need to be adjusted.

Adjustment

• Loosen the clamping screw with a hex key and set the part to the desired dimension

• Retighten clamping knob

4.4.6) V ruler: MZL.2090 extension ruler

• Connecting extensions on the basic ruler from the 0 point to 2550 mm.

Assembly:

• Slide extension ruler onto the ruler on the machine

• Clamp with the clamping knob

Important

Support the extension ruler using ruler supports.

4.4.7) Ruler supports: MZV.2100 for extension ruler

• Attach the ruler supports to the table at the outside third of the extension ruler. Place

a 40 mm high block of wood underneath. (countersunk chipboard screws 6x50)

Important

Make sure that the calibration on the ruler support corresponds to the

one on the work table of the PRO-CENTER 2000. Pay attention to the

adjustment area of the work table.

• Before setting the work table, loosen the clamping lever on the ruler support. Then

retighten.
