My usual power-up procedure leaves the horizontal output tube out until I verify the following:

Negative grid bias
Grid drive waveform
Screen voltage
DC plate voltage

Making sure that all of these look reasonable without the tube installed greatly reduces the chance of fireworks when the tube goes in.
