I'm stuck in Spire as well...

I'm in what looks like a throne. Pull the lever and I decend a level, pull
it back a bit more and I decend further, pull it again and I appear to be
dangling in a chair underneath Spire. There are three cogs and levers in
front of me. If I go back up a level, I can push three knobs forwards and
backwards in the middle of the console. I am to assume there is a
combination here. Any hints as where to look or the methology behind it?

I'm stuck in the same place. I think I know what to do with three slider
controls but I've searched all my notes/pictures etc and can't find any clue
which tells me how to set the cogs.
Please can anyone provide a gentle nudge?
Nick.

There are symbols on the cogs.

(Pretty gentle, right?)

Thanks for that. I got so frustrated last night I went and got a stronger
hint.
I did spot the symbols on the cogs but I find the link between each symbol
and the related number very obscure.
