Welcome to the forums, that should be fine but if need be you can get a fitting to go on the top of the pipe.

That's fine, if you get the grey pipe roughly 8" down inside the white pipe it should be perfect.

You've got the feed hose(s) connected ok?

Thank you for the welcome.
Do you know what kind of fitting I would need

I have an issue with the feeder too.
So it's facing side ways and I don't know how to turn it forwards so I can attach the feeder.
Do I need to switch it off at the mains so it doesn't flood when I move it

Was there a bent piece of plastic with the machine, like this ?
If so it clips around the waste pipe to stop it falling out of the the white upstand pipe.

It's only on plastic, that'll turn a wee bit fairly easy. The pipe should twist enough for you to get your hose connected.

Thanks everyone got it sorted

 

[Dotty]

That's good, thanks for letting us know.

We'll all be round for tea in the morning!

A lot of them won't do it because "they're not insured". I've had quite a few people ring over the last few months wanting washing machines etc. hooked up. Maybe someone flooded a house or something recently? This is all of a sudden it seems...
