An adapter fitting has a bore therethrough connecting the adapter body to the tubing, and further has a connecting device for a quick-connect fitting. The foot valve has a body with a check valve which permits flow of chemicals only from and not into the drum. A foot valve connects the foot valve body to the tubing. A quick-connect fitting that is normally closed is adapted to engage the adapter by a spring-loaded ring which interacts with a recess. A manually operated release mechanism for the ring is connected thereto.
