I will look into safety measures before working on the inside of the tv and
i certainly will not try working on it with the power turned on.




You pretty much have to work on it with the power turned on, just shut it
off and unplug it before you try to solder anything. Usually there's enough
slack that you can leave the HV anode lead connected to the CRT and not have
to discharge anything. Just give it a few minutes for capacitors in the
power supply to discharge and treat them as charged.
