Before you start the pursuit, it would be good to look around and pick up supplies from crates. There is also a workbench nearby. Once you're ready, approach the machine - hook yourself and start descending. If you press the run key you can make a jump, thus avoiding holes. If you combine it with the direction keys (left/right), you'll be able to jump aside quickly. After short walk you'll be attacked by Necromorphs.
Once you get to the very bottom, unhook yourself - you'll get attacked again, so watch out. Loot supply crates and go to the elevator, which will take you down. You'll find yourself on another platform with several crates as well as with line mechanisms.
Weapon Parts 1/4 - On the piece of ice, near the line mechanisms.
This time your walk down is getting tougher and tougher. At the beginning you'll have to deal with Unitologists - shoot at red clusters of container, which will explode thus killing your enemies.
Weapon Parts 2/4 - On one of the destroyed bridges on the right - near the long metal railing. You have to use kinesis to pull it towards you.
Keep descending until you get to the very bottom - after unhooking quickly find a cover because you'll be attacked by two Unitologists on the other side of the shaft. Once you get rid of them, head right to the only available door. There is interface inside which activates further passage.
Weapon Parts 3/4 - On the locker on the left, in the room with the interface.
In the next room you'll find a workbench and a suit kiosk. After moment information about unlocking a new suit will appear - it is Elite Suit. Use the kiosk to exchange your current suit for the better one.
Audio Logs 1/1 - On the desk to the left, near the suit kiosk.
Upgrade Circuits 1/1 - On the wall, near the passage to the next room.
After leaving the room you should see another mechanism with lines - after few steps you'll get attacked by a horde of Necromorphs. Keep your position near the door, to have a better view on the catwalk.
After the fight, keep your walk down the shaft. While descending, a cutscene will start at some point - you'll get to know a new type of Necromorph. This huge creature is very strong so try not to ignore him.
When you get to the bottom, you'll come across another monster fighting two Unitologists. A good idea is to eliminate him before unhooking, so you'll have an advantage over him. Move ahead walking through the short corridor into the room with a huge fan. Again use the line mechanism to get deeper. On your way there you'll encounter huge Necromorphs several times.
Blueprints 1/1 - Under the scaffolding on the right.
Weapon Parts 4/4 - On the crate to the left, near the scaffolding.
While getting deeper, you'll come across turning fan - use kinesis to slow it down and continue walking. Unfortunately, you'll get stuck and the fan will try to smash you. Quickly press action key to save yourself by cutting off the line.
