plumbing top-off to kalk reactor

I'm trying to plumb the output from my Tunze Osmolator into a kalk reactor with a 5/8" input/output. Funny thing is, the osmolator has a tiny output (3/16" ID x 5/16" OD) so I'm not really sure how to get such a tiny output connected to a much bigger input. Any ideas? I wonder if push-fit parts (similar to what's used on RO/DI units) will work? I know a couple of people in the club have probably done something similar to this, so I'm hoping for some guidance.
 
I took the tubing with me to rock city machine downtown. I then bought stuff that matched the tubing that goes over the osmolator pump, and then the stepdown tubing. If I recall correctly, there is a third diameter of tubing (3 sizes) on the osmolator. I stepped it down to the second size which I believe is the size you want. I think I bought a 6' run or so of the tubing I wanted, and 1' or 6" of the larger diameter stuff that slips over the plastic outlet on the osmo pump.
