First a male and female fitting is needed (the size that fits on the brake booster) with a shot bit of hard line to slip the hose on to, (hack saw) which I got from my parts cars. Then all thats needed is finding the short piece of hose with "T" that goes in-between. I found that I couldn't use the plastic hose as it wouldn't go back over the hard line even with heat applied. The hose and "T" I found in my box of random vacuum stuff, and have no idea where it originally was from. I did take a pic of it and the hole in the pump seemingly caused by the head of the diaphragm bolt. I'll see if I can get them uploaded 
The test results were just as you translated from the manual, 14 hg in 15 secs.
