MAINTENANCE
Your
amplifier
should
require
little
service
except
for
normal tube replacement.
If
desired, the
6L6GB
output
tubes
may
be
replaced
by
the
6L6
GA
or the
6L6
metal
tubes
aid
also
by
the
premium
5881
tubes
without
circuit
changes.
When
replacing output tubes.
It Is
desirable
to
use
matched
pairs
of tubes
for
the lowest
distortion.
To
facilitate servicing,
remedial
and
trouble-shooting
procedures
have been
provided
In
the
TROUBLE
SHOOT-
ING
CHART
that follows.
VOLTAGE
and
RESISTANCE
CHARTS
are
also
provided
as
an
aid
to
locating defective
components.
On
the schematic diagram,
AC
mid-fre-
quency
(1
kc) voltage
sensitivities
are
shown
at
most
of
the
grids for
full
20watt power
output
In
order
to
permit
a
careful,
stage-by-stage
check
of the operation.
