help with dishwasher waste pipe installation

[xyz321]

hi

we got a new dishwasher today and want some help with waste pipe installation. not too keen to call in a plumber for this so wanted to ask here.

If you cant see photos here is the link to my album:
//www.diynot.com/network/xyz321/albums/

am attaching photos of the sink spigot and dishwasher pipe. question is simple in that how do i connect these two together? they are of different diameter? do i need a different spigot or clip or something else?

I am also attaching a photo extracted from manual regarding point 3 in installation step below.

Secondly here is an extract from dishwasher manual (Zanussi ZDf 2020)

1) Connect the water drain hose to the sink spigot.

2) The internal diameter must not be smaller than the diameter
of the hose.

3) If you connect the water drain hose to a trap spigot under the sink, remove the plastic membrane (A) (see photo). If you do not remove the membrane, remaining food can cause a blockage in the drain hose spigot.

So questions are:

1) how to connect waste water pipe to spigot?
2) what is this third point? What is a trap spigot?
3) stupid question, but the orange insert seen in photos needs to be removed right? or is it to be used to somehow connect the wastepipe to spigot?

there is also a smaller one available. you will have to measure it . B&POO is probably your best bet.

so i connect waste pipe from diwasher to the smaller end of this spigot and other end goes into the sink spigot right? If the waste pipe going OVER the spigot without any clamping then doesnt the water leak? how are the pipes actually held in place?

is it something similar to this then? just that i dont want to wait to order on ebay.

thanks. sorry for asking again but do i need something to hold pipes together? like a clamp or something or does the waste pipe from dishwasher simply slide over this hose connector?

Better with a jubilee clip to hold it on.

Went and got that. I am able to connect waste pipe to that connector. But the connector does not fit to Spigot as the connector is bigger than the spigot connection. what do i need? a reducer?

Is it too big?
They come in different sizes. Get the one which fits your waste pipe.

Will try. When I was at screwfix, I asked them if they do hose connectors in different size and he said no. So I asked abt reducer.

thought would just give an update.

i couldnt find the one with right size so decided to replace entire kitchen trap. so got one from screwfix and the dishwasher connection from that was removable and right size. so only replaced that part. thanks for your help.
