If you can get the back off the machine you can pull the pipe off completely then run a bit of cable or wire through it as suggested above.
The thing to look out for before trying this is the force of the water when it pumps in to a bucket - it really should be like a tap on full pelt. Anything else is a blockage or fault somewhere.
Ah I suppose it could be something in the pipe, now you mention it it seemed to work better when I had it out in a bucket than when I reattached it so it looped up to the top of the machine and and then down into the waste pipe.
What would one use to unblock the pipe? I expect there's some kind of expensive flexible rod type thing.
