Of course the fuse takes care of the whole thing, it's in the primary to
the power transformer. F601, it's a 6amp fast-blo 3AG fuse for 120vac
operation (3ampts if running off 240v).
** As marked on the rear of the scope - the fuse needs to be a "slow
blow"
type.
It's a standard glass fuse, you should be able to get them anywhere.
I couldn't be bothered going down to the basement to check, the manual was
handy. The parts list says fast-blo. The odd thing about the manual is I
see no photo of the back panel.
** So the thick plottens .......
Seems there is disagreement between the manual and the labelling on the
back.
A "T 6.3" amp fuse is too big for a tube scope - but an "F 6.3" amp fuse
would be about right, given the inrush surge of the circa 200VA supply
transformer.
