Now, you'll have to apply weight to the different glowing pressure plates on the floor to free the battery in the centre. To do this, turn on the machine north of the battery using B12, the machine will now follow you so move toward the gate south of the battery. Once the machine is directly underneath the gate, switch it off using B12 again and jump on the machine. You will now have access behind the gate.

Arrange the two machines onto the platforms north and south of the battery in the centre. This will raise the pillar, clearing the way for you to roll the red barrel onto the remaining platform. The pillar containing the battery will now drop down and open, leaving it free to take.
