Default KiT6550 5ode/3ode voltages

If anyone can help me on this....?

Recently completed my amp. Checked and checked again, fired up and (apart from a few blown fuses - it doesn't like being switched on hot) it sounds amazing - everything works - but......

Voltages on the the ECF80s are significantly at variance to those advised by WAD. They are as follows:

aT - 180V
g1P - 0V
g2P - 80V
aP - 145(R) / 165 (L)
c3, g3P - 1.6V
cT - 5.3V

All other voltages - everywhere - are within tolerance.

Can anyone advise me a) whether the amp is OK to use or will damage any components (or catch fire) or b) which components might be damaged or off spec. to cause this problem (WAD clearly had a few issues with typos on circuit diagrams/instruction manuals and they certainly mis-supplied several components with the kit)

enormously grateful

Matthew
