Sorry if this has been covered someplace else but...
My tractor has ag couplers and I would like to rent an attachment with flat face couplers. Where is the best place to buy "plug and play" adapters? Do they work ok? Anything I should watch out for?

I have a set I used to convert from the old JD tapered type to the newer straight type, they worked fine, I think the set I have was made by pioneer, (this was a long time ago), but most of the time I have found it cheaper (lower cost) and can be easer, to go buy a few ends that fit your brand of couplers and take off the ones on the machine and replace for the time you use it and then replace the ones that came on it to return it,

Safeway Hydraulics Quick Coupler Adapters

one can make an adapter, with a male and female coupler parts of each type, or if you do not want it that close put a short hose in between the nipple and coupler,

One other thought does your tractor have enough PSI and GPM to run the machine? most of the flat face, are for some High psi hydraulics.
