Default Blue Loctite on the nipples of EV5U?

Hey All,

Just picked up new EV5U PRO from Dreamworks. The nipples are threaded and screw into the unit. Does one/ should one use blue Loctite when screwing in the nipples on a semi-permanent basis?

Don't want to set the whole thing up with airlines connected, etc. and then find out I SHOULD have used Loctite.
Thanks in advance!

No Loctite on these fittings! No reason to thread lock them and doing so could snap the thread off the fitting (thin wall) during removal.

I tried it once, but it wasn't on an EV5U.
