Default Adding Freon To S80 2000?

Guys, I was trying to add freon to my s80 last night, but I could not snap the adapter in for the life of it. Does Volvo need a special adapter?
Maybe I'm not using the wrong valve? It's the one on the radiator. The other one I found was buried on the left side, really low. I figured the one on the radiator was the right one.

It's getting really hot in MN, I need my air

The VADIS instructions are to use that valve but it is high pressure requiring special equipment.

Check out this for a 'how to' using the low pressure valve:

Does the regular adapter fit on the low pressure valve?
Has anyone else tryed to do this, does it actually take that many steps?
