Myst Hints
How do I work the elevators?
1 of 2: First, you need to give them power. See the first question in this section for more help if you need it.
2 of 2: If they have power, you should be able to climb in and pull the lever. When you do, the elevator should start moving. If it doesn't, the flow of water probably has been directed to the wrong location.
