ʻO ka 5-Step Safe Pyramid-Plug Extraction Protocol (ʻAʻohe Plumber koi)¶

1. ** Kaʻanuʻu 1 (E pani i ka pahu pahu lalo a nānā i ke poʻo):**
2. Push the exterior black-water T-handle 100 percent CLOSED. Inā ʻaʻole e pani ka lima i ka 1 kenimika hope (3/8 inch) no ka mea, ua wili ʻia ka ʻōpala i hoʻopaʻa ʻia i loko o ke ala o ka ʻili ʻili, mai hāmare ma ka lima (ʻo ka ʻoki ʻana i ke kaula hao i loko o ka ʻōpū e pono e ʻoki i ka coroplast ʻōpū RV). Akā, e wili i ka Valterra Twist-On Auxiliary Waste Valve ma luna o ka pahu bayonet 75-milimeter (3-inihi) o waho i loaʻa iā ʻoe kahi 100% leak-proof second shutoff valve ma waho o ka pahu paʻa.
3. ** KaʻAnuʻu 2 (Ka Wai Pumehana + Surfactant + Enzyme Soak, 12 a 36 Hora):**
4. ʻAʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻomaloʻo hydro-jet, cellulose i hoʻopaʻa ʻia a me nā mea paʻa fecal a hiki i ka ** hoʻomaʻemaʻe hou ʻana a haki i ka haʻalulu o ka ʻili** o ka pyramid.
5. E paila a wela paha 12 a 20 lita (3 to 5 gallons) o ka wela (NOT boiling, max 55°C / 130°F so you do not warp the ABS/polyethylene tank) water.
6. E hui i loko o ka bakeke wai mehana:
   • 250 mililita (1 cup) o ka wai Dawn dish soap (a powerful surfactant that penetrates dry paper fibers and lubricates the tank floor),
   • 500 mililita (2 cups) o Calgon wai hooluu wai (a i ole Borax, which breaks the ionic calcium bonds holding fecal solids and paper together), AND
   • Double dose of an Enzymatic / Bacterial Holding Tank Digester (such as Unique RV Digest-It, Happy Campers, or Liquified). (Mai hoʻohana i nā kinikona polū i hoʻokumu ʻia i ka formaldehyde i ka wā e hoʻāʻo ai e ʻeli i kahi pahu; pepehi ka formaldehyde i nā hua bacteria e hoʻoheheʻe ana.)
7. E ninini pololei i kēia hui pumehana ma loko o ke kīʻaha halepaku ma luna o ka pyramid i hoʻopaʻa ʻia ka cone ma ka hapalua o kona kiʻekiʻe, a ** waiho i ka pō (12 to 24 hours)** e hoʻohuli i ka ʻōpala o waho i slurry palupalu.
8. Step 3 (Top-Down Mechanical Hydro-Jetting with a Flexible Rotary Tank Wand):
9. Attach a Flexible Tank-Rinse Wand with a Brass Rotary Swivel Nozzle (Camco Flexible Swivel Stik, $20 ma ka hale kūʻai RV a i ʻole ke ala lako lako) i kahi paipu kīhāpai i hoʻolele ʻia ma ka puka aniani (e hoʻohana mau i kahi paipu hoʻolaʻa pono ʻole hiki ke inu me ka pale ʻana i hope, ʻaʻole loa kāu paipu wai inu keʻokeʻo).
10. Hold the toilet foot-pedal open, push the flexible 80-centimeter (32-inch) ka paipu koʻokoʻo i lalo pololei i waenakonu o ka cone pyramid i palupalu, a hoʻohuli i ka pahu pōpō hoʻohuli ʻehā ma ka ʻauʻau ma ** pōkole 10 kekona kekona**.
11. E wili mālie a hoʻoluliluli i ka ʻauamo i luna a i lalo e like me ka wili ʻana o ka pata a ʻokiʻoki ka pahu wai ma ka ʻaoʻao ka wikiwiki i ka cone pyramid i loko o ka slurry wai.
12. E nānā i ke kiʻekiʻe o ka wai ma loko o ka lua halepaku: Ke piha ka pahu ʻeleʻele i ka 75 pākēneka i ka slurry ʻeleʻele, e pani i ka pahu wand, hele i waho, a huki i ka pahu wai ʻeleʻele waho e wehe. ʻO ke kaumaha o ke poʻo hydraulic o 100 liters (25 gallons) of liquid water will rush out the 75-millimeter (3-inch) paipu i ka wikiwiki, e kauo ana i nā ʻāpana nahā o ka pyramid i waho i loko o ka paipu wai.
13. ** Kaʻanuʻu 4 (Hoʻomaʻemaʻe i kahi "Outlet Neck Plug" mai waho me ka hoʻohana ʻana i kahi Reverse Back-Flusher):**
14. He aha inā heʻe ka pyramid ma ka ʻaoʻao a hoʻopaʻa i ka 75-milimita (3-inch) ka paipu puka ma hope pono o ka pahu hoʻolei waho?
15. Hoʻopili i kahi Ka mea hoʻopololei hoʻihoʻi hope-māmā (Camco Dual Flush Pro a i ʻole Valterra HydroFlush 45-Degree Clear Elbow) ma ka puka o waho, e hoʻohui i kāu paipu wai ma lalo, a hoʻohui i kahi paipu kīhāpai pono i ka puka hoʻokuʻu hope.
16. E pani i ka ʻīpuka liʻiliʻi haʻahaʻa ma luna o ka mea hoʻopili maʻemaʻe, e wehe i ka pahu wai ʻeleʻele o ka RV, a hoʻohuli i ka paipu kīhāpai no 3 a 5 kekona. E ʻike ʻoe i ke kaomi ʻana o ka kuʻekuʻe lima a pana i kahi jet o ka wai i hope i luna o ka RV 75-milimika (3-inch) puka i waho, e puhi i ka pahu i hoʻopaʻa ʻia i hope i loko o ka pahu nui kahi i nahā ai. E wehe koke i ka ʻīpuka ʻīpuka haʻahaʻa o ka mea hoʻopili i hiki ai i ka pahu holoʻokoʻa ke ʻāwaho i waho i loko o ka paipu wai.
17. ** KaʻAnuʻu 5 (Hoʻohana i ka "Closed-Valve + ⅔-Full Dump Rule" mau loa):**
18. Ma hope o ka hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻia ʻana, e pani i kāu pahu pahu wai ʻeleʻele i nā manawa āpau, ʻoiai ke hoʻopaʻa ʻia i kahi paka RV lawelawe piha. Ma hope o kēlā me kēia hoʻolei ʻana, e ninini koke iā 15 a 20 mau lita (4 to 5 gallons) o ka wai + ka mālama ʻana i ka enzyme i loko o ka pahu ʻeleʻele kaʻawale ma mua o ka hoʻohana ʻana o kekahi i ka lua, a huki wale i ka pahu wai ʻeleʻele i ka wā e liʻiliʻi ai ka pahu. 2/3 to 3/4 full so a powerful wall of water scours the floor clean every single time.
