Ki te taka te mekameka o te waka hiko, ka taea e koe te haere tonu me te kore he tūponotanga. Heoi, ki te taka te mekameka, me tāuta tonu e koe. He huarahi kawe waka te waka hiko, he hanganga māmā noa iho. Ko ngā wāhanga matua o te waka hiko ko te anga matapihi, te motuka, te pākahiko, me te papa whakahaere. Ko te anga matapihi te pūtake mō te tāutanga o ngā wāhanga katoa o te waka hiko. Tata ki te katoa o ngā wāhanga o te waka hiko e mau ana ki te anga matapihi.
Ko te papa whakahaere kei raro i te nohoanga o muri i te nuinga o te wā. Ka whakamahia te papa whakahaere hei whakarite i te ara iahiko hiko o te waka. Ki te kore te papa whakahaere, kāore e taea te taraiwa noa i te waka hiko. Ko te mōtini te pūtake o te kaha taraiwa mō ngā waka hiko, ā, ka taea e te mōtini te pana i te waka hiko ki mua.
Ko te pākahiko he wāhanga e whakamahia ana hei penapena hiko i runga i te waka hiko. Ka taea e te pākahiko te whakakaha i tētahi pūnaha hua hiko i runga i te waka hiko. Ko te pākahiko he wāhanga me whakakapi i ia wā. I te piki haere o te auau o te utu pākahiko, ka heke haere tonu ngā āhuatanga o te pākahiko.
Otinga:
Whakaritea ngā taputapu whakatika, arā, ngā tīwiri e whakamahia whānuitia ana, ngā pliers vise, me ngā pliers ihu ngira. Whakaohokia ngā pētera ki mua, ki muri hoki kia kitea ai te tūranga o ngā taputapu me te mekameka. Tīmata mā te whakanoho i te mekameka o te wira o muri ki runga i te taputapu. Ā, kia tūpato ki te whakatū i te tūranga, kaua e whakaoho. Kia mau te whakatūnga o te wira o muri, me ngana tātou ki te whakatika i te wira o mua i te ara kotahi.
Kia mau ngā mekameka o ngā wira o mua me muri, ko te mahi matua ko te huri i ngā pētera ki te taha maui o te karaka mā te ringa hei whakakī mārire i ngā taputapu me ngā mekameka o mua me muri kua mau. Kia oti te whakauru katoa o te mekameka ki ngā taputapu, kua rite te mekameka.
