I drew up a little thing and attached it.

Please correct me if I am wrong, I pull the top of the horizontal output tube and have my meter in series with that lead as well as a capacitor in series with my meter. Then adjust to get below 210ma while maintaining 24kv on the picture tube anode at normal brightness setting.
the Horz current setting is on the CATHODE , not the plate
you will have to interrupt its path to ground. (pin 3)

this may help explain
