Yeah, sorry. Teflon tape. I'm outa that, too.
Is it still necessary? It's been a while since I played with compressors. I'm guessing I need a roll.

I use my compressor primarily for inflating balls, toys, etc., bringing auto and motorcycle tires up to proper pressure, and to blow air as a cleaner, etc.
As each of these activities requires a different nozzle, I screw the nozzles on only finger tight. A little air leaks, but I'm not required to go hunt a wrench every time I use the compressor, and there is plenty of air for whatever I'm doing.
If I were going to use it to paint my house, I'd probably go the teflon tape and wrench route. -- John H

Bassy, So would I, but I can't think of any reason it is neccessary, which was Harry's question. The leak would be so little, I don't think the leak would impact on the funtionality of the tool or the compressor. Unless you were keeping the compressor on you would never notice the tiny leak around the threads.

I think a lot of that is because it is an oil lubed compressor, not suitable for diving unfortunately. I've always been impressed with Makita's tools in general, and have had one of their nice little palm sanders for a zillion years.

Harry,
I must have missed something, I didn't say you shouldn't tape the fittings. I definitely would have, and said so, but I can think of nothing that would have been damaged by not taping the threads. The only negative I could see by not taping them is the air would bleed out if you left the tool on the hose.
Since everyone knows the tape costs about a buck, and it is always easy to apply the tape, I couldn't figure out why you asked the question "Is it NECESSARY to use Teflon tape". The only reason I could guess you asked the question is you were too far away from the stores to buy the tape, and was wondering if you would damage your threads by not using tape. I did not think it would damage the threads on the hose or the fitting on the hose, which was what I thought was your question.
I am curious, if it was not a big deal to get the tape, everyone knows Teflon takes prevents leaks on threads, everyone knows it is very easy to apply, WHY DID YOU ASK THE QUESTIONS?

Yes. Brass fittings were invented, which allowed for little air loss when tightened hand tight. -- John H

That really seems too obvious doesn't it. In my ignorance, I thought Harry was sitting there living in God's country wanting to use his compressor, but didn't want to damage it, or Harry just wanted to chat about his compressor, in which case, my post responded to both of his needs.
The thread kicked around the topic in a positive cheerful manner without any arguments from any of the participants.

Harry,
You will be very disappointed when you try to use the sander or paint with it. You will need a compressor with a much larger tank and a pump that produces more air. Some people buy a plain air tank and run it inline but you are still limited to the volume of that tank. It will only give you a bit more time to run a tool until the compressor runs even longer to pressurize both tanks.
Makita compressors are designed for short bursts for nailers. Anything that requires a lot of "free air" will suffer while your compressor struggles to maintain pressure.
As a side note, Makita assembles compressors. They don't make them. The pumps on decent electrics are usually made in Italy from a manufacturer that starts with an "F" - there are three big companies.
Hopefully yours is splash lubricated rather than the "oiless" type unless you will use it only occasionally. If it is, make sure you run it on a level surface and when you change the oil, use only non-detergent motor oil.
