This will tell you the filament voltage, the adapter you need (if you need one) and what position to set the G1 switch (high or low). With the tester off, set the filament voltage, connect the tester to the CRT, set the selector switch to the continuity/shorts position. Turn on the tester and let it warm up; the two indicators marked G1 and G2 have two sections each. The way they light will tell you if there are problems. THere should be a chart in the lid of the tester that explains the results. If there are no problems indicated, turn the selector to the emission setting. The meter will show the level of emission, 300 or more is good. I would not use the clear short or rejuvenate function unless absolutely needed.

Thank you very very much.

I greatly appreciate it!
