If you really want to run a compressor off your 780w generator buy the smallest compressor you can. Then change the motor for one about 250w or less. Fit a smaller motor pulley to compensate for the reduced power. Ratio of pulley diameter should be same as ratio of motor powers. Use the switchgear and air bleed down already on your compressor to drive the new motor. It will be slow and you will be buying two motors.

As others have said best to buy a bigger generator or a petrol powered compressor.
