There are two ways to secure the hose in the dump station waste receptacle. Some RV parks require you to use a doughnut which goes over the discharge
nozzle and can be wedged into the waste receptacle to hold the waste water discharge hose in place. If you trust gravity more than friction, or don't want to
store the doughnut between uses, use a rock to weigh the hose down. Either way, make sure the hose doesn't get loose when you turn the pump on. The
discharge stream is forceful and will knock the hose out of the drain if you do not weight it down or secure it in the drain with the doughnut. It is much easier
and more sanitary to secure it before turning the pump on or opening the discharge valve than it is to chase it around afterwards.
