Monitor
The cabinet has a Nanao MS-2932-S 31KHz monitor. The picture is very nice, the image sharp and there is no visible burn.
Normally I just use an air duster and anti-static brush to give the monitor tube and chassis a light clean, but this monitor was filthy and a more thorough cleaning was required.
The back of the tube was caked with black arcade dust so I discharged the tube and I used IPA solvent cleaning pads to wipe the grime off. However these pads contain water so I was careful to avoid the aquadag coating, which is water soluble. The aquadag coating has a pencil lead appearance, and I just wiped around it.
These are the pads I used:

I also find them useful for cleaning PCB edge connectors.
For the aquadag coating and the monitor chassis I just used an air duster dry air blast cleaner and anti-static brush.
For the cables / wiring I thought the solvent cleaning pads might be a bit harsh so I used some alcohol free anti-static PC cleaner wipes, which are suitable for plastics.
These and similar products are available from most stationary shops:

Earth Wiring
A couple of earth wires inside the legs weren’t connected to anything and some earth wires were missing.
Facing the front of the cab, the correct arrangement is as follows:
LHS Leg - 2 Earth Wires
1. Leg frame earth point – I/O tray (same position as the CP earth)
2. Leg frame earth point (bottom) – base earth point on the very left hand side, about 20cm into the cab.
RHS Leg - 3 Earth Wires
1. Leg frame earth point – lighting unit frame.
2. Leg frame earth point – monitor frame.
3. Leg frame earth point (bottom) - base earth point at the very rear right, near the transformer.
