DANGER!
High voltage! Risk of death!
High voltages of up to 500 V DC may be present inside the casing for
long periods after being disconnected from the mains. To avoid lethal
electric shock, do not open the casing. There are no user-serviceable
components inside. Refer all maintenance to qualified service
personnel. Remove the mains cable when the unit is not in use.

The
BIAS TEST
connector lets you connect a voltmeter in order to measure
the power amp valves (bias adjustment). Make sure that the voltmeter is set
to direct current (DC).

The
BIAS ADJUST
control is used to make the bias-adjustment.

Replacing the power amp valves also requires bias adjustment.
You should always use sets of four matched valves. The valves of the
BUGERA Series are ideal for this purpose.
