camcorder CRT

I got a broken camcorder off of ebay and it came
yesterday. the CRT seems to work but because the
camera is broken there was no image, the CRT was lit
up though. The CRT setup has, the CRT, an LED, and a
MIC. it has 8 wires comming off of it. The wires are,
Brown, Red, Orange, yellow, green, white, black and
blue. Both the black and white wires are encased
together in a grey sheath. I haven't opened it up yet
so I don't know whats inside. I don't a proper screw
driver for that. I am probobly going to pick one up
today. The CRT setup has a sticker labeled
"manufactured september 1991. Also there it says
"caution risk of electric shock. do not open." Is
there realy that much of a riks of shock? Is it safe
to handle a bare CRT with power flowing? What other
safety precautions should I worry about? Once I crack
the thing open I suspect it shouldn't be to hard to
isolate the wires for the CRT. Also I might want to
keep the mic on there. But due to weight
considerations I might remove it. I don't know much
about camcorder CRT's asside form the stuff on this
list. I will keep you posted when I crack it open. I
might even take some pics.
