Here we precede each F6 with its neighbouring diminished 7th chord from the F major 6 diminished scale. This can be used over a Dm7 to create motion toward the resolution on a G7.

This example takes the same tack as Example 21 but adds a borrowed tone in the diminished 7th chords in the form of a root from one of the related dominant chords.

Apply example 25 to a ii-V-I in C, and this is one possible result.
