Tube and tube shield installation

Tube compliment:

2 6DJ8’s - V1 and V2

2 12AX7 - V3 and V4

2 12AT7 - V5 and V6

1 6X4 - high voltage rectifier

Install the tubes:!!When inserting tubes into their sockets, be

very careful not to bend the metal pins. Begin by installing the tall

6X4 rectifier tube into the socket just in front of the power transformer

housing. Continue installing the other six tubes by first inserting two

6DJ8’s in the two sockets nearest the rear of the chassis, V1 and V2.

Next, insert two 12AX7’s in the middle two sockets, V3 and V4. And

finally, install two 12AT7’s in the remaining sockets nearest the front

panel, V5 and V6.

Install the tube shields: The three silver tube shields

provided are vitally important in keeping noise away from the three

most rear tubes, V1, V2 and V3. There is a gap around those three

tube sockets, and down in each of those gaps are two metal pins that

the tube shields lock on to. Note the locking-slots at the bottom of the

tube shields. The unit should be powered off with AC cable

disconnected.
