TUBE LOCATIONS - See the diagram above for the proper tube locations. Power should be

unplugged and allow the tubes to cool before handling them. Changing tubes on this preamp is a

little more tricky than most because the printed circuit boards are elastically suspended. It is

more important to allow the power supply capacitors to fully discharge when putting tubes into

the sockets. It is difficult to push or pull the board so that it shorts to a grounded jack but .....

The technique to remove a tube is to rock or wiggle the tube around as you gently pull.

To insert a tube, wiggle it in as you gently push. It is safer if the bottom panel is on - there are

stand-offs under the board that are about 1/2" above the bottom panel that should prevent the

PCB from going further than that 1/2".

FUSES - Each of the fuses are 1 amp slow-blow. Un-plug the AC mains before checking the

fuses to prevent any possiblity of a shock. One fuse is for the regulated high-voltage supplies,

the other two are for tube filaments (heaters).

A fuse that has turned black inside is a hint that a "short" occurred. Try another. If this fuse also

blows then there may be a problem requiring a technician but often the problem has a simple,

visible cause. The fuse is a protection device designed to stop power, rather than allowing

potentially expensive damage to the power supply. Replace only with the correct size and value.
