Usually this is a bad idea. Maniacs will usually be better at being maniacs than you will...

Standard procedure:

1. Play big hands fast.
2. Play total nothing hands fast a bit more than you normally would. This will make 1. (above) more effective. 
If you want him to stop picking on you specifically, try coming over the top with total garbage one time (94o), and SHOW the hand, whether he folds or reraises and you have to fold; doesn't matter, the point is to warn him that you are capable of playing back, making you a less appealing target. 
3. Call down with marginal hands a bit more than you normally would; getting aggro vs. a maniac with something like K9s on a Q92 rainbow flop might seem like a good idea at the time, but he will show you a better hand too often to make it profitable IF you play a big pot; call down if the turn and river are reasonable: i.e., let him do the betting for you.

To sum up, play trash and monsters the same, call down with the middle stuff.
