Here's what you should do to get past the gears at the Hall Basement!

Check out each gear one by one, then view the ceiling to see the effect. It is recommended that you open up a new window for the Hall's Ceiling and just refresh there to test another gear's effect.

Objective

You have to find out which 3 gears open up the right half by 4 notches, 5 notches, & 6 notches (a total of 15 notches opened at the right half, when the three are combined). The entire left half should be completely closed.

What are notches?

Those lines around the ceiling's hole are referred to as "notches". You'll have to find out the following gears:

• A gear that will open the right half for 4 notches
• A gear that will open the right half for 5 notches
• A gear that will open the right half for 6 notches

Make sure these three gears have the left half completely closed.

Finding out the 3 correct gears

Now, onto the process of checking the gears! Open up NotePad, and type in the following:

Use this Legend to fill out the form:
X = If the left half is open/is slightly open
X = If the right half is open by less than 4 notches
X = If the right half is completely closed
YES!!! = If the left half is completely closed & the right half is open by either 4, 5, or 6 notches

This means out of the 10 gears, 3 of them will be marked as "YES". Take a look at this sample:

Therefore, in the above example, you'll be needing the Gears 01, 04, & 07 to get a total of 15 notches open at the right half. :)

NOTE: The three correct gears need not be located in all three rows. They can be in just two rows (two in one row, then one on another), or all three in just one row. The one you see above is just an example.

If, after 10 tries (10 refreshes at the ceiling / 10 pushes of the button), and you still can't find the 3 correct gears, the Janitor will reset the gears and you'll have to start all over again. But don't worry; it's easy once once you get the hang of it.
