new washing machine, unable to attach waste pipe

[Lordbodger]

that's what i'm trying to attach it to, but the pipe is 21mm and the spigot (i assume you mean the plastic connector) is 23.5mm.

i've forced it and forced it but there is no way it is going to attach, it was starting to damage the internal pipe due to the force being applied.

I just had this problem. I tried hot water and that didn't help. I then used a pipe wrench to flatten the ribs on the inside off the flexible pipe for a distance of about 3/4" and it fitted easily. I used a jubilee clip of course

Congats, you have weakened the hose with your bodge.
