B. Anti-Bubbler Installation –3/8 inch tubing
Install the spring guard, the fitting nut, and the ferrule onto the feed line. Insert the feed line into fitting
located in the reservoir lid. Insert the anti-bubbler into 3/8 inch feed line. Position feed line so that the anti-
bubbler is close to the bottom of the adhesive bottle.

5 Operations
5.1 Priming the Valve
Connect the utilities.
Place a full product bottle in the reservoir.
Set the reservoir pressure to a value suitable to the product viscosity (low pressure for low
viscosity product, higher pressure for high viscosity product).
Position a container under the dispense nozzle. If it is not possible to position the container under
the dispense nozzle, use the silicone tube to route the outlet point to a container in a remote
location.
Set valve controller on "Manual" control to open the valve.
On the reservoir set pressure/vent control (toggle switch) to pressure positon.
Open the valve until air free product flows at the dispense point.
Remove the container or tube. The valve is ready to dispense.
Once the valve has been primed, set valve controller to 'Timed Mode'
5.2 Adjusting the amount of Loctite Product dispensed
®
The Loctite
Shot Miser Valve™ is part of a pressure-time dispense system.
Here are the variables that control the amount of product dispensed:
Product pressure.
Higher pressure = more product flow
Lower pressure = less product flow
Time the valve is open
Longer time = more product flow
Shorter time = less product flow
Needle size
Larger needle inside diameter = more product flow
Smaller needle inside diameter = less product flow
