Walkthrough: 10 - Residue Processing

Overview
This level consists of, well, a residue processing facility. But unluckily, the best way isn't available, so you'll have to make do with getting over the Residue Processing machines, through pipes and along conveyer belts - oh, and nearly getting squished.

  When you come to a big drum, turn the valve on it's side, and climb the ladder - quickly - before the platform lowers too far, otherwise you'll hurt yourself jumping down. Crawl through the pipe at the bottom. You'll come out to find a security guard killing some Headcrabs. He'll then run off - and get himself eaten alive. Run after him and grab his pistol when the Barnacles fully eaten him, use the First-Aid Unit if you need to, then return to the room you jumped into (from the pipe).

In this little puzzle (see picture) you need to jump from crusher to crusher across to the other side, without ending up in the Toxic Waste. Quick-save the game. Watch the machines for a minute, then start to jump across. It may take a few tries to find the best route.
  Walk along the left-hand pipe (the right-hand one will break when stepped one) until you come to a pipe sticking out of the wall. At this point, jump across to the right-hand pipe and continue.
  Optional: If you need health and power, climb down and walk to the other side of the room to find a First-Aid unit, then return and go through the first "Maintenance Access" door you come to, and you'll find a H.E.V. unit. Return to the pool of Toxic Waste.
  Quick-save the game. Jump onto the stirring thing when it's nearest to you, then wait until it's right next to the other one and jump across. Then jump into the pipe when the stirring thing is in the right position.
  Jump down from the pipe and break all the boxes to find health and ammunition. Get onto the conveyer belt. When you end up in some dirty water, turn around, and dive underwater. When you see a fan in front of you, surface and continue on foot for a moment. Jump back in the water and dive down. Watch for a gap in the right-hand wall, you can surface there to catch your breath and get some First-Aid.
  Dive back into the water and continue until you come to three conveyer belts. Get out of the water here and go to the right of the conveyer belts where you'll find some switches. Set all these switches to the top position, then go to the control room opposite.
  Break any boxes and use the First-Aid unit. Quick-save the game. Press the button overlooking the conveyer belts, then run for the middle conveyer belt. The crushers you just stopped will start again after a short time.
  Get past the next obstacles best you can. When you pass over another conveyer belt, jump down onto it. When you pass over another conveyer belt, jump onto that. Do this four times more. You should see a trip mine in front of you, which you need to blow up. There's another trip mine round the corner, which your going to have to try to blow up as well.
  Jump from conveyer belt to conveyer belt to avoid the rollers. At the biting machine, jump through it when it's mouth is wide enough. Jump onto the catwalk before you end up in the Toxic Waste. Climb the ladder, and leave this dirty place.

Congratulations! You've completed the level! Save your game.
