remove the back from the tv
and on the back of the picture tube is
a round thing with windings on it,
its known as the yoke.
to move this you have to loosen the
lock screw that hols the yoke, then
turn the yoke a little to the right, this will lower
the left and rase the right of the picture.
do not move it in or out, just tune it, and when its
strat lightly fasten the lock screw.

not to tite!
