Black Tank Flush

I have one of these on my Cougar and I tried to use it and it really didn't seem to do much. It did put water in the tank, made an awful lot of noise and my friend I was camping with laughed at me. So I disconnected the water line (after 10 - 20 minutes of "flushing") and he let me borrow his 45 degree connection that has a flush line built in to it. I used that and you would have thought that I never even emptied my black tank previously. That is what I use now. Maybe something's wrong with my flush, but the 45 connection with a flush line is the ticket for me. They don't really explain how to use the flush on the RV so maybe I'm doing something wrong or just not doing something I should be. Any ideas?

I tried using mine again and this time I noticed water dripping out from under my camper. It was leaking into the camper from the connection just inside the camper which is under the sink in the bathroom. After soaking up all the water I could I decided to just never use it again. I had let it run for nearly an hour! and when I hooked up my flush attachment I got a WHOLE LOT MORE out of the tank still.
