Deflection System Cutoff Switch

Off to a great start with your complete restore to original restoration. I'm impressed with your progress so far, even to re stuffing failed capacitors!
From my experience with this beast, I would advise mounting a single pole toggle switch in series with the +400v deflection system fuze.The rear chassis near the HV adjust pot is were mine is. This "kill switch" would enable instant HV system shutdown and restart without taking the entire 21CT55 down and have to wait for a complete TV start up. During work on the deflection system, I never leave the room without killing the + 400v power! I might be a slow learner, but not that slow.
