Just got a brand new air compressor. I haven’t used them very often so this may be a simple question.
I assumed that the compressor would come with a quick-connect valve on it – instead it just seems to have what I’d call a hose valve. Image attached.
How do I convert that to quick connect? I’m going to be using it to power a media blaster pot.
Thanks

Unscrew the brass fitting that is barbed to accept a hose, and replace it with an air hose quick connect fitting. Teflon tape or an alternate thread sealant is a good idea.
These fittings are sold many places. Do you already have the hose you want to use to Connect? The blaster pot may also need fittings.
