New member- Oscilloscope calibration help

I just purchased a oscilloscope from ebay not too long ago. I recieved a Philips PM 3055. I turned it on and the lines were not level or centered. I used the trace rotation knob to asjust the level, so it is flat now. The problem I have is the line wont center. I adjust the x-axis as far as it will go, and it doesnt come close to reaching the center (I will take a picture). I was wondering if any of you know how to fix this. My friend told me it was a potentiometer inside, so I opened it up and there are lots of pots on the top board. If anyone can guide me to fixing the screen, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks for your help.

Have you checked the coils on the neck, they might be out of alignment after shipping (bumpy ride).

Pardon my inexperience, but how to I do that?

Oh my. The seller said he didn't know if it worked or not. That usually means it's broken.

The horizontal is a long way off. I'll bet it's an electrical malfunction. If you are lucky, it's just a loose connection or maybe an intermittent scratchy trimpot.

I would try gently wiggling and tapping things with an insulated stick, in hopes of finding a loose connection. If no luck, find yourself a service manual and start troubleshooting. Don't be surprised if a used manual costs more than you paid for the scope. Maybe you can borrow another scope to help troubleshoot this scope.

I believe something is defective.
Try contacting this guy: **broken link removed**

Apparently these people have the service manual for sale.
