How to adjust tracking on vcr?

I have a Hitachi Hi-Fi FX6410 VCR that has been making a very loud staticy popping noise while watching movies, I'm pretty sure it's a tracking issue as it's a fairly recent development. I got this secondhand from a friend and I don't have a manual or remote to go with it. I am pretty sure the remote that goes with our LCD TV is a universal remote, so I'd probably be able to adjust the tracking with that, I just need some help with how to do that. Thank you in advance!

Have you read the owner's manual for it?

I don't have a physical manual for it, and I haven't been able to find it's manual online. I'm going to try the other commenter's suggestion, if that doesn't work I'll look again for a manual.
