CRT Yoke rotation after case opening

Hi everyone,

After opening my SE/30 to mount my SCSI2SD and reclosing the case I noticed that the image displayed on the screen was a little bit rotated compared to before opening the case. You case see attached picture to see. (Both images were taken after the rotation). 

What could be the cause ? Did I hit something when opening ? Did I alter an adjustment ?

Of course I read the Classic Mac Repair Notes and I saw that I could rotate the yoke itself. That's what I tried but there is a lot of glue and it won't move. And I don't want to give it too much torque, I'm a bit afraid to break it.

Is there anything I should know to revert the display back to normal ?

Thanks a lot.

In fact I'm not actually sure where I should remove the glue. Could anyone tell me exactly which glue should I remove before rotating the yoke ? Thanks.

Ok fixed, I was looking at the wrong screw. You should use the screw the most at the back of the mac, not the one closest to the display.
