Cog Jog

Right at the start of this level, jump up and hit the hanging light. A Puzzle Piece will drop down for you.

You must do some timed shooting from barrels in this section. Get into the barrel here and fire yourself at the K KONG letter and the bunches of bananas. Then time your shot so you fly through a gap and land on the platform.

As soon as you land on the platform, step off the left side and drop into a barrel, collecting a Puzzle Piece as you go. Then shoot yourself back up onto the platform.

As you cross these platforms, which tilt quite a bit, you will have to do a lot of jumping to keep from sliding off. Blow on this lightbulb to release a Puzzle Piece.

As you approach the checkpoint, run and jump off the tilting platform when it is pointed up to the right. This allows you to get the O KONG letter.

Just after the checkpoint, ride a platform up and then jump into this pipe to the left to enter a bonus area. Clear it out and collect the Puzzle Piece.

Get back on the same platform you rode up to the pipe. However, this time, as you get to the top of its rotation, jump up and hit the hanging light. A Puzzle Piece will drop down. Catch it and make sure you land on a platform so you don’t fall.

Jump your way to the top of this tilting tower of three platforms. At the top is another Puzzle Piece. Grab it, then drop off one of the sides and collect bananas on your way down.

Grab the barrel to the left of the tilting tower, and then head to these two long platforms. Throw the barrel at the bag to get one more Puzzle Piece for your collection.

When you get to this large gear, collect the bananas and pound on it to get it to start moving. When the gear stops moving, the trap door will open. Drop down into a secret area. Pound on the red button in the middle to plug in the power cord. You will need to do this in this level as well as 7-6 and 7-7 to activate 7-R which allows you to get to the boss level.

Make your way to this barrel in the middle of circling platforms. Shoot out of it to the platform on the right, then jump back onto the outside of the platforms so you can get the Puzzle Piece hovering in the air here.

The N KONG letter is located near the second checkpoint. As you get close to it, ride a platform up high and then jump across to collect this letter.

Grab on to the green chains on these curved platforms. Hold on as they rotate around. Ride this platform to the top, and then jump up to get the last Puzzle Piece.

The G KONG letter is located at the center of this curved platform’s rotation. Jump to the platform to the right, and knock off the Pyrobot Mk II. Then as the platform starts to move below the G KONG letter, run and jump to get the letter. Land on the platform as it rotates, and get back onto the platform to the right. Continue to the Slot-Machine Barrel to complete the level.
