Hi

sorry for this post which sums up my diy skills. I have an LG washer and on the drain hose it has some kind of no return valve. I want to connect the drain hose to the kitchen sink. Do I just cut the hose to get ridof the valve bit and slide it over the kitchen sink waste pipe secured with a jubilee clip or need to do something else. Pic attached. Cheers

Does it mention the yellow piece as a transportation plug to be removed in the instructions. Wouldn`t go cutting the hose just yet.

Hi. No, it doesn’t say anything about it. Just assumes I will hook over the sink or put down a tall waste pipe. You’re right about not cutting the hose though - no going back after that. Not sure how something so simple has ended up so complicated. Whatever happened to straightforward rubber connections!
 
Is the yellow piece perforated?
 
Never seen one of those , I would say you need to buy another fitting to go on the end of it and then on to the trap , it should be supplied surely !!
 
I found a LG installation video and it wasn`t in the end of the hose hence I thought it might be a plug for transportation.
If it a solid plug with no holes and you can`t push it open like a flap then I would see if it can be removed easily.
