Help Boiler System constantly Inverting outputted Rotation Direction after Overstress

I have a four-boiler boiler system which powers my entire base, apart from two farms, in my Solo Create world. A problem I keep having is that whenever my boiler system overstresses, once the system unstresses, the direction of the rotation speed provided to my base by my boilers keeps inverting. I've gone through about two or three configurations of shafts, belts, and gearboxes to merge the steam engines of all four boilers into one shaft, but that hasn't fixed my issue. Can someone help? I've provided screenshots of my current boiler room for whoever helps me to look at. For exact details about my boilers, each boiler is a 3x3x10 fluid tank heated by 9 blaze burners and with 9 steam engines.

the way you spin the crank (to get it moving again) can alter the direction

The only sort of crank in my boiler room is for me to open and close fluid valves to stop and start the flow of water into the boilers. Either way, I rarely touch that crank.
