use some half inch pipe with a valve tap that you use with your 8mm pipe on the reel

you would need to play around with the fittings a little , and get a hoselock end to connect your hose to it

right on the water input the middle hole gets blanked off.

on the pure and waste side middle  is pure and the other is waste with your tap on.
if that makes sence?
