The brightness and all three high voltage pots were frozen and had to be taken apart. All you need to do is carefully pry up a bit of metal and the back covers come right off. I used electrical parts degrease to clean out the old lubricant. Isopropyl alcohol works well too. After cleaning, I used white lithium grease.



Here it is all recapped and ready for a first power up
