The Philco Repair Bench instructions which mention rotating the coil are referring to the newer style of shadow meter found on 37-XXX and newer Philcos.
Your 16B (should) have the older 'box' style shadow meter with a coil like the one Terry posted - or see the same repair bench link. The only thing you can adjust there is the lamp position (gently bend the arm) - and possibly the filament orientation (rotate the bulb).
