Tip from GB: 

  1. Inject an NTSC dot/crosshatch signal and set the customer picture control to ¾ range.

  2. Set the focus control for the CRT being adjusted to give the smallest possible dots at the center of the screen (right edge as viewed from the back of the set when adjusting the blue CRT).

  3. Turn the focus control counterclockwise until a halo appears around the bright core of the dots.

  4. While viewing a dot near the center of the screen, adjust the 2-pole magnets on the neck of the CRT assembly so that the bright core is in the center of the surrounding halo.

  5. Turn the focus control clockwise past best focus to a point at which the dot becomes a blob.

  6. Adjust the 4-pole magnets on the neck of the CRT assembly to make the spot as nearly round as possible.

  7. Readjust the focus control to obtain the smallest, best-defined spot.

    Note: If an NTSC generator is used for this adjustment, the spot might be slightly rectangular.
