Ngongo Tāke Whānui He ipu whakarewa pereti maitai te tāke whānui, he rerekē ngā rahi me ngā whakaritenga rerekē. Ko ngā paipa e whai ake nei ka honoa ki te tāke whānui:
(1) Paipa whakawhanui Ka whakawhitihia te nui o te wai kua piki ake i roto i te pūnaha nā te whakamahana me te whakawhanui ki roto i te tāke whakawhanui (e hono ana ki te wai whakahoki matua).
(2) Ka whakamahia te paipa puhake hei tuku i te wai taikaha i roto i te tāke wai e nui ake ana i te taumata wai kua tohua.
(3) Ka whakamahia te paipa taumata wai hei aroturuki i te taumata wai i roto i te tāke wai.
(4) Paipa tohanga Ina tio pea te tāke wai me te paipa whakawhanui, ka whakamahia hei tohanga i te wai (kei waenganui o raro o te tāke wai, e hono ana ki te wai whakahoki matua).
(5) Ka whakamahia te paipa paru mō te tukunga paru.
(6) Kei te hono te takirere whakakī wai ki te pōro mānu i roto i te pouaka. Mena he iti iho te taumata wai i te uara kua whakaritea, ka honoa te takirere hei whakakī i te wai.
Mō ngā take haumaru, kāore e whakaaetia te tāuta i tētahi takirere ki runga i te paipa whakawhānui, te paipa tohanga me te paipa waipuke.
Ka whakamahia te tāke whānui i roto i te pūnaha tohanga wai kati, e whai wāhi ana ki te whakataurite i te nui me te pēhanga o te wai, kia kore ai e tuwhera pinepine te takirere haumaru me te whakakī anō i te takirere whakakī wai aunoa. Ehara i te mea ko te wāhi anake o te tāke whānui ko te whakauru i te wai whānui, engari he tāke whakakī wai anō hoki. Ka whakakīia te tāke whānui ki te hauota, ka taea te whiwhi i te nui ake hei whakauru i te nui o te wai whānui. Whakamakuku. Ko te mana whakahaere o ia pūwāhi o te taputapu he tauhohenga honohono, he mahi aunoa, he iti te awhe pēhanga, he haumaru me te pono, he penapena pūngao me te pānga ōhanga pai.
Ko te mahi matua o te whakatakoto i te tāke whakawhānui i roto i te pūnaha
(1) Te whakawhanui, kia whai wāhi ai te wai māori i roto i te pūnaha ki te whakawhanui i muri i te whakamahana.
(2) Whakanuia te wai, whakakīia te nui o te wai i ngaro nā te mimiti me te turuturu i roto i te pūnaha, ā, kia tino tika te pēhanga momi o te papu wai māori.
(3) Pūwero hau, e tuku ana i te hau i roto i te pūnaha.
(4) Te inenga, te inenga o ngā matū mō te maimoatanga matū o te wai tio.
(5) Te whakamahana, mēnā he taputapu whakamahana kei roto, ka taea te whakamahana i te wai matao hei whakamahana i te tāke.
