NST current limit adjustment.

Hey all,
 
I've depotted and reassembled my first NST. Replaced the thick tar paper
wrapping with polypropylene .075" thick.
I noticed during dissassembly that some of the shunt plates were out by half an
inch for current adjustment. I noted the position of everything before
continuing the disaasembly.
 
However, I don't believe everything can be within calibration even after
reassembling everything exactly as it was. 
 
So my question is "how to readjust the current limit shunt plates?".
 
NST:
Franceformer 15K 30ma 450VA.
 
Available equipment:
O-scope
Variac
Multimeter
Bunch of 50W resistors anywhere from .1 ohm to 50K ohms.
A lot of assorted other parts.
 
I have no high voltage probe though. If I need one I can get one in about a
week.
 
Thanks!!
