POLO 25" - FOLDOVER - does it have a 50/60hz adjustment pot?

I have a 25" Polo in my Street Fighter cab. I just changed boards and the foldover on the bottom is pretty bad with my new SFA2 CPS2 board. It smooshes the bottom 1" of the screen.

I know I probably need a cap kit but was wondering if I could adjust it out. I am not familiar with this monitor and the chassis looks foreign to me. I found a manual but it doesn't mention any adjustments on the chassis, only the remote board. Is there a 50/60hz adjustment pot on the chassis? Any other adjustments I could use?

These monitors are one of the best for image quality in my opinion... I love them... when they are working.

The bad: The SUCK BIG when they go down. Pretty hard for a novice to service them
 
So, I had a party yesterday and this monitor did not make it through the event. Bummer. It went black. No idea just yet what's wrong. Will look at it today. I'm guessing I should shotgun it with caps, fly, and hot?
 
Is the monitor making a clicking noise?

I didn't hear any clicking. Honestly, I didn't even look to see if any fuses were blown or even if there was neck glow. I had a spare 25" K7000 so I threw that in today. I'll revisit this later I guess when I need another 25" monitor. :)
 
best image quality, hands down. embarrasses anything else. as Arm123 said though, when it goes bad, it goes BAD. I've been in a difficult enough position with these that even having them serviced by Chad wasn't the answer, so I just took it upon myself to start tinkering on my own.

I have a little bit of experience with them now, I'm just a little uncertain as to wtf happened this time, had 2 working chassis on the same tube and it blew the HOT on both. I'm guessing yoke failure is pretty common on them too... worse yet, the yokes are bonded, so it's not like a drop-swap with those either.

the tubes are high quality, all RCAs from what I've seen, you've never lived until you saw Killer Instinct and Killer Instinct 2 running side by side with these beauties. lol
