Head back to Connector 2 and remove it from the red platform. Remove the Hexahedron and attach the fan to the device. Place the Hexahedron on top of the fan and place Connector 2 on it. Stand on the red platform to propel Connector 2 upward. The Activator should also move to the center of the room.
