I use a JG 1/4" push fit tap at the brush head. I cut the pole hose just before the Y and then superglue in a bit of 1/4" RO tubing at each and the JG fits nicely.

What you need is the following:
1x 8mm Push-Fit inline valve:

2x 6mm barb to 8mm JG stem to fit one in either end:

These plastic taps would not fit this size hose and are more for isolation purposes (tanks, etc) so are not as easy to operate.
