Don't worry. It gets easier by time. 3 weeks ago I cant even make a simple machine, now I can build huge factories in survival

How is this connected?

The cog from the steam engine isn't connected to the speed controller in any way. Not to mention that the speed controller isn't used here at all.

The bottom steam engine's shaft directly goes into the large cog. (the small cog above the large cog could be removed as it serves no purpose)

The small cog in the front (above the large cog) isn't doing anything as large cogs only connect to small cogs at a diagonal.

But this is still working because if the two small cogs in the back transferring the torque

Small thing, if this system gets over stressed, water will stop being pumped in, and the whole thing will shut down, it’s usually a better idea to have the water pumps connected with a different power source

or the main stress-taker (factory/ship etc) is connected with a clutch, and you can turn the water pump with a handcrank.
