You still have a way to go before you can move that red pipe!

US Version

After following Hint 1, move the L- and T-shape pipes into the top-right corner. Make sure they're side by side in the top two rows.

Now there's finally some space next to the red pipe, so move it to the right one space, and then move the vertical pipe up one.

The next step is to get that brown pipe into the bottom-left corner...
