OK , so I now want to master this hold, but this room presents its difficulties.

It seems the only way to conquer it is reach the disarm token at least 11 turns before the adder does, and make sure that indeed it can reach the token and not get stuck in the eastern part of the room.

Since it will never go W over E it means that the adder must be in the western part of the room (never past 19'th column) or it will never enter the corridor, however I do not see any way of creating enough spacing (11 turns) between Beethro and the adder in that way,as Beethro can not force the adder to go W in this room while standing behind him on the East.

help please ....

EDIT: Have just installed DROD on laptop I'm currently writing from and resolved room there, so one more hint if you're still stuck:
