CHANGING Power & PreAmp TUBES: Always use caution when changing tubes. The Power switch on the amplifier should be turned off and the power cable unplugged from the source.

The tubes should be cool. Each tube is secured with a special tube retainer that keeps the tube seated properly and also helps to counter-act unwanted tube microphonics. A small Phillips screw-driver will be needed to unscrew the round tube retainer. After this retainer has been removed, rock the tube slightly and gently while pulling up on the tube and remove it carefully. When re-installing tubes, note that the pin positions are “keyed” to the socket. Make sure that you seat the tube pins properly in the socket and carefully push it tight into the socket. Reattach the round tube retainer. Make sure the rubber grommet inside the tube retainer securely holds down the tube.

NOTE: Dangerous and/or lethal high voltages are present inside the amplifier chassis. Refer all servicing to qualified service persons.
