DON'T even think about touching those!  they adjust the convergence and color purity 
and are a major pain to get right again if fiddled with since several of them interact 
with each other and adjusting convergence is just plain tricky!  there should be pots 
on the circuit board(s).  there is a clamp on the deflection yoke (the wire windings) 
that should be snug (but not too tight or you can snap off the end of the tube), check 
that first.  the rotation can be fixed by just barely loosening just that clamp 
(again, be careful not to disturb the other settings, particularly the rotating rings, 
they are a real pain!) and rotating it to get the display straight.  there should be a 
pot on one of the boards for horizontal offset or phase, that will move it side to 
side.  the "compression" is vertical linearity adjustment pot.  the sides being pushed 
in is "pincushion" adjustment pot.

be very, very careful working on the monitor hot.  it's very useful to set up a mirror 
in front of the monitor since you have to be behind the monitor to make the 
adjustments.  it can be done with 2 people but is much more difficult that way, and 
really hard to do by yourself if you haven't done it many, many times (i have and 
still usually use a mirror).  some medicine cabinets have mirrors that are easy to 
temporarily borrow.  there are very, very high voltages in the monitor, and allot of 
it runs at a high enough voltage to be a problem.

contact me off list if you need more help.
