RCA Colortrak 2000, No Red

That RCA Colortrak 2000 I got doesn't seem to have any red. I'm not entirely helpless around electronics but TVs are a little out of my orbit, so any suggestions will be much appreciated. The model # is FKC2022T and I believe (from research on the web) the chassis is a CTC-121. It was made in October of 1984.

My main concern is safety as I know there are some pretty high voltages inside TVs, discharged through bleeder resistors. How long should I leave it unplugged before opening it up, and how do I check that the bleeder is doing its job?
