Hi there!
we just bought new Bosch washing machine. Now when we try to install the water inlet hose it is not closing properly. I have tried the hose with garden tap and it just worked like a charm but not with the laundry tap. I am not sure what is the issue? The size of the tap may be is the problem? If so how to figure out that? The tap is facing upwards; can it be the reason?
Thanks in advance

Hello @Zamish
Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about your washing machine hose.
I suspect that it is the position of the tap that is giving you a hard time in screwing the hose to the outlet. I suggest lifting the hose up and lining it up as straight as possible before you screw it to the tap. It will take a fair amount of effort, but you should be able to attach it securely.
Here is a handy step-by-step guide: How to connect a dishwasher (the techniques used are applicable to your project)
