The main things to be careful with are to discharge the filter capacitors as has already been discussed here, and to discharge the 2nd anode connector on the CRT. If these two things have been done, and the chassis not powered up, you will be safe while installing new capacitors. If you connect everything and power up the chassis, just remember to discharge the filters and CRT once again before resuming any further work. In the case of the CRT, I like to ground out the 2nd anode connector, and then leave it grounded while working on the set to make sure there is no residual voltage left. Good Luck!
