Title: 25K7191 or "K7000" Hortzontal Size?
Post by: helpmebuild on March 08, 2010, 09:13:21 pm

I was hoping for some clarification on where the Horizontal Size pot or adjustment knob is? On the chassis it has a diagram but I cant seem to find it. I definitely don't want to be poking around in there for things I don't know about so does anyone have a pic or a verbal as to how to adjust this? It seems awfully hidden in comparison to the other adjustments. Any help?

That is a pic of what is shown on the underside of the chassis but what is the deal with that kind of "pot"? How do I adjust this thing?

You need a hex tool like what can be found in this kit:

Anywhere else that carries those tools? Happ requires a min of 20.00 to your order before checkout which is a little ridiculous in my opinion. Also, what if I were to use a metal one carefully while the monitor was off and unplugged? Would this work, or still not a good idea? I just need some ideas or links to other places that may sell this item.

Radio Shack used to carry them.... it's kinda hit and miss if they may have any actually in stock though nowadays. Last time I saw them in a store I picked a couple sets up on clearance for like .97ea, but that was awhile back.

Radio Shack sucks now; they are nothing more than a glorified cell phone dealer. Instead of focusing on the market that made them huge - hobbyists like us - they focus on manipulating people into signing up for 2-year contracts. I went in there to look for a new LED bulb for my coin doors and the guy there didn't even know where they kept bulbs like that in the store!

On the bright side, if you walk in to Radio Shack and head to the components/parts section the salesmen leave you alone, because they know absolutely nothing about anything in that section.

I'm waiting for the day they try to sell me a 2-year plan for my quick disconnects.

/end rant  :angry:
