I have a Porter Cable pancake compressor. However, would I need another type of hose and fittings, to connect the sander to the compressor, besides that which came with the compressor?

Sorry but you'll need a 36 gallon tank with a sufficient compressor to boot to run an air sander like this. The small Porter Cable compressor is good for about 10-15 seconds the first time you pull trigger and decreases to almost nothing within a minute or two. Don't fell bad I made the same assumption and mistake

Simple, if the kit you have with the compressor does not have the correct size fitting for the sander go to HD or Lowes and get one. Those sales guys would consider this an easy fix. Good luck.

Standard 4" hose fits the Jet's dust collection hood, and then a reducer (http://www.rockler.com/woodworking/Dust-Collection-Reducers) gets you down to the 2 1/4" diameter. I'm doubtful that the shop vac is sufficient to cope with the dust load when sanding, however.

The Milton S213 is a 5-piece kit and will have all the fittings you need to connect a hose to the coupler that comes pre-installed on this compressor. You can also find fitting kits at any big box store such as Lowes, Home Depot and Harbor Freight. HF fittings are cheap, but tend to leak. Have had good luck with the ones from HD. Hope this helps.

I'm not sure, however, Amazon does also sell a universal blade adapter to mate universal oscillating tool blades to Porter Cable. I would also order this accessory with the blade assortment and return it if not needed.

The hose comes with 1/4 male threaded on both ends so you' need to buy quick release couple or female adapterdepending on what comes off the compressor ...

I can't say if it fits the DeWalt brand as I purchesed it for the Porter Cable sander that I own. The screw patterns that are predrilled on the pad might be for a Porter Cable only. You might want to try a tool supply store in your area if you can't find it on the amazon web site,they usually have most brands of tool parts that I have ever needed.

It does not connect to a shop vac hose at all. I am returning mine. You might be able to cobble an adaptor with duck tape but why bother as other sanders are connectable. The little bag is not adequate for heavy sanding and a shop vac in necessary when doing heavy sanding to keep the dust down.

1/4" or 3/8" hose will work. You just need standard fittings to hook it to the compressor.

No. You wont need any "special connectors or gauges" but you might need a connector for your hose to the air compressor. Nothing that you can't get from Home Depot or Lowes.

Take it you have a compressor and some quick connect fittings and a hose; then all you will need is an assortment of brad nails (a small sample comes with it).

I don't know you'll have to ask porter cable or look omn there web site for answer to that. Sorry i couldn't help you more good luck

No you cannot easily connect to a shop vac. The port coming off the sander is too small and the connector to the bag is oddly shaped so you can't even tape a hose to it. You could order a special adaptor from a third party and hope it doesn't fall off. For less money both DeWalt and Milwakee make sanders that easily accept shop vac hoses. There is much less dust when connected to the suction of a vac than used with just a tiny bag for collection.

yes, it is a correct fit. however, after using if on a large sanding job for a day, the hooking ability at the end of the day was marginal and the discs tended to fall off. i've never had that problem with the porter cable one so i probably will not buy another.

Put a few drops of air tool oil into the actual metal coupler that attaches your air sander to the air hose, its the thing at the bottom of the handle of the air sander. This is also the same spot where the coupler (the thing that attaches the air sander to your air hose) threads onto the air sander (underneath the handle)

From what I can see you will need the Bosch RA1126 adaptor and the RA1100 adaptor to use these (or any other Porter Cable style) template guide bushing kit. You could just get the RA1125 set that comes with the adaptors you need and some template guide bushes. Just realised that the RA1125 kit does not come with the RA1126 adaptor so you would have to buy that separately.

i made it work with Dewalt track saw and a porter cable bench jointer. worked great, but needed to buy special connections from a hardware store. it is a great dust extractor.

I have been using the porter Cable Fr350b with 2 1/4" & 3 1/2" nails mated to the Porter Cable Pancake compressor for a couple of months. This combination works great. I am using 80 psi with the 2 1/4" nails, & 95 psi with the 3 1/2" nails. Buy it! you will love it. Jim McIntosh
