The set you have is a later one. HV doesn't go away on its' own. You have to properly discharge it using a screwdriver with an insulated handle, and, an alligator clip. Clip the alligator clip to the blade of the screwdriver, and, the chassis.
Holding the insulated handle, stick the blade of the screwdriver under the hv connector rubber cap on the picture tube, until you hear a loud snap. Then, repeat proceedure two, or, three times, as the ambient hv tends to re charge it.
