I think I screwed up the elevator machine. - lucyland - 10-06-2011

I turned the burner on before I pulled the lever that makes the wheels turn... Now it's not working. The other two puzzles are perfect and have been solved.

...Please don't tell me I need to load a save and not turn the burner on. I'd have to re-do the storage level. Dear Lord, please do not tell me that.

Okay...here's your checklist

Did you make sure that the steam pressure is six up and six down?

Did you make sure that the rod puzzle was solved correctly?

Did you fill the burner with coal? Did you pull the lever?

Did you put all the cog wheels onto the three spokes to connect the big wheel to the rest of the machine?

If you did all these things, and it still doesn't work, then yes it's broken

It's actually 8, not 6.
