General Description
The TD101 Tube Dispenser System was designed to dispense any liquid, pastes, grease, silicone and similar
fluids directly from the manufacturer’s collapsible tube.
The old fashioned way of squeezing the material out of the tube creates many problems, such as:
Messy material transfer.
Introduction of dirt during the transfer.
Air bubbles are introduced during the transfer.
The material is never completely squeezed out of the tube, and the tube is thrown away with material
in it (very costly).
With the TD101 Tube Dispenser method, all one has to do is attach a nozzle or an adapter to the material
tube, then drop the tube into the tube dispenser and you are ready to start dispensing.

Using with Luer lock Tips
1. The TD101 Tube Dispenser is shipped to accommodate a nozzle(1*). In order to be able to use Luer
lock tips, remove O-ring(3*) and Luer lock ring(4*) out of the gun assembly by means of a screw driver.
2. Use appropriate Air Connector Fitting(8*, 9*) on the end of the Air Hose Assembly(7*).
3. Connect air hose assembly to air source.
4. Remove Gun Cap(10) by rotating counterclockwise.
5. Thread one of the supplied tube adapters(16) onto the collapsible tube. If none of these tube adapters
fit, contact your Fisnar representative.
6. Attach Luer Lock Adapter(15) to tube adapter(16).
7. Now select the appropriate Tapered Luer Lock Tip(14).
8. Insert assembly(14, 15, 16 & 12) into gun housing inserting tip through dispense end opening.
9. Pull tip through opening until firmly seated. Then thread Adapter Nut(13) over Tube Adapter(16) until
tightened against the end of the gun. It may be necessary to hold the squeeze tube to prevent rotation.
10. Thread Gun Cap(10) securely onto gun housing.
11. Turn up air pressure (50 psi. Max) and squeeze gun trigger until desired flow is achieved.
Recommended starting pressure of 20psi.
12. To remove empty squeeze tube, first remove Gun Cap(10).
13. Hold squeeze tube while removing the nozzle Retainer Nut(2*).

Problem
Check for Correction
1. Air leak at relief poppet.
Excessive Air Pressure; reduce below 50 psi.
Dirt or foreign substance clogging poppet seal – blow free using air.
Defective relief poppet – Contact Fisnar representative.
2. Air leak at trigger.
Defective trigger valve assembly - Contact Fisnar representative.
3. Air leak at gun cap assembly.
Cap not firmly seated.
Dirt or foreign substance interfering with gasket seal.
Defective gasket – replace.
4. Air leak at dispense end of gun.
Nozzle not fully seated in O-Ring seal – tighten.
Incorrect nozzle configuration.
Worm or missing O-ring seal – replace.
5. Relief poppet blows at too low an operating pressure.
Relief poppet not seated properly - Contact Fisnar representative.
6. Material does not dispense.
Air not connected or pressure not high enough.
Nozzle not cut.
Nozzle or tube clogged.
Excessive air leak (see air leak problems above).
Defective trigger or valve assembly.
7. Material dispenses erratically, “spitting”, “popping”…
Nozzle cross threaded or not threaded down firmly on squeeze
tube.
8. Incomplete dispense (tube collapses at front end
blocking material).
Tube was physically deformed at front end when threading on
nozzle – take care not to deform tube.
Too much air pressure or too rapid a dispense rate – reduce air
pressure or reduce dispense orifice.
