If a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] jumps on it, the arrow wheels will move in the direction the arrow is pointing. However, it can change its direction if the Yoshis jump on it again or if the object hits a surface. Arrow wheels can also be grabbed with the Yoshi's tongue and spat out. Arrow wheels come in two colors: tan, the most common, and blue. The difference between these two types of arrow wheels are that the blue arrow wheels disappear if a Yoshi jumps off one and doesn't ride it again for a while. The only way to prevent its disappearance is to grab it with the Yoshi's tongue and spit it out. Arrow wheels first appear in the level [[Salvo The Slime's Castle]]. Arrow wheels are mainly found within the various [[castle]]s and [[fortress]]es across [[Yoshi's Island (place)|Yoshi's Island]].

A vector graphic of two arrows, one red and one blue, pointing away from one another, with a purple and white circle in the middle. It has been suggested that this page be split into Work Elevator, Arrow Lift. (discuss)
This article is about the common object. For the platform that debuted in New Super Mario Bros. Wii, see Arrow lift (New Super Mario Bros. series).

Arrow Lifts as they appear in Super Mario 64 DS.

Arrow Lifts[1][2] are objects in Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS, appearing only in the course Wet-Dry World. They are gray blocks with blue arrows that move back and forth when Mario steps on them. In the Hazy Maze Cave level "Elevate For 8 Red Coins," there is a large, flat platform called the Work Elevator[3] with four arrow-emblazoned buttons. Mario can step on these arrows to move the platform, thus being similar to the Directional Lift.

In New Super Mario Bros. Wii and New Super Mario Bros. U, different arrow lifts behave somewhat similarly, but they only move side to side or up and down. Similar objects called Switchboards also appear in Super Mario 3D Land and Super Mario 3D World.
