get the little metal cone thing and put it over the end of your plastic hose, MAKE sure it fits tight, then insert it into your fitting the tighten the hell out of it.... main thing is to make sure the little metal cone fits tight over your hose....

Hope that helps

The fitting you speak of are just normal compression fittings. Works like the picture. Tighten the compression nut, but not too tight as to break the plastic tubing.
