Equator brand washer/dryer--pipes etc. sent with it don't fit well?

The instructions on this very expensive, bought-new machine say 'TRY TO fit A into B', both of which they provide, and it has always leaked leaked leaked, even with sponges and buckets and all that set up around it. Any ideas beyond to use it for a table, which is what I have done for a few years now? Their service people on the phone were useless. Thanks in advance--

It's a washer/dryer, one unit, made in Italy I think, a few years old and bought new, with original fittings which fit poorly from the word go. EZ 3600 CEE clothes processor is the name on machine...
