Can I Use A Copper Drain Hose In Place Of A Plastic One? Is It The Same?

My unit did not come with the drain hose so I kept the one from my old dishwasher that was in the house when I purchased it (which I never used). When the dishwasher is out away from the installation place it works...once I move it back in place the water doesn't come through.  Could it be the drain hose since it's considerably smaller being a copper one? Model F25011735
