Craig,
Thank you kindly for those detailed instruction, which I have printed out.
Perhaps later today, I will follow them and get that puppy cleaned out and
generally look inside for cap leakage.

The knobs don¡¯t have to come off. This is how I do it all the time. I
usually take the case off when doing this but the scope needs a front cover
which you may not have. But it if you set the face on carpet and carefully
and don¡¯t put alott of pressure on the controls of the front panel. Remove
the rear screws 4 #20 torx and 2 #15 torx if all screws are still in rear
cover. Then slide the case off the back. Then set on a table with the front
Basel just off of the tables edge now or later as in this info. Take a
small screwdriver and get under the edge of the strip on top of front bezel
and pry it up moving along from one end to the other. Do this carefully as
the little plastic tabs will come out . Then you now have access to all 8
#10 torx screws. 4 on top and 4 on the bottom. Then set the front just off
the edge of the table and rock it easily to pull the entire assembly
forward. The knobs and the knob retainers will cone off of the
potentiometer shafts all together. Just work it forward easy mainly pulling
on the screen side a little more. Then when putting it back on. Get the
front started on the potentiometers, might have to move the knobs bu
turning them a bit to get it to line up the carefully work the front Bezel
back on. Then leave the bezel cover strip off reinstall the case and back
then put bezel strip back on.
Removing knobs is very hard and 80% of the time they will break there
internal clips.

Beside the four torx screws on the bottom, how to I take the bezel off
to clean it? i remember reading where it is real easy to break the knobs
removing the bezel. I assume only the four knobs under the CRT need to
come off?
