OK. Thanks for all the input on the topic guys.
It just struck me as interesting that they needed this adjustment on the
front panel of the machine-- which implied that they needed to adjust
it often.
I guess it was a long forgotten art of making the machine easily
servicable for their SEs :-)

This is still routinely done even today on most high end equipment.
We have software control of all power supply set points, and
routinely margin the supplies +/-5% during diagnostic testing (as
well as stressing them from 0'C to 55'C ambient in thermal chambers
at the same time).
There are no twisty knobs on the front panel but the function is
there none the less.
