RCA 21-S-510N Restoration Thread- Update

I'm putting this here for any questions I have in restoring this television, if you haven't seen my original post go here:

This being my first TV restoration I have some questions the first one is pretty basic?

Can one adjust the focus coil and ion trap while the TV is turned on? I'm not sure as I wouldn't want to be exposed to the anode voltage.

Also In the schematic there is a 600V 0.0012 uF paper capacitor near the horizontal oscillator tube which demands a 5% tolerance, not being able to substitute another value the only 0.0012 uF capacitor I could find that wasn't a ceramic disc was rated at 1600V. My antique radio experience says that this is ok but I just wanted to be sure.
