Default Taylor 45A Valve Tester Information

I have been trying to get hold of a manual for the Taylor 45A valve tester, which it seems is like searching for the abominable snowman. Can anyone point me to a copy or a download?

Alternatively, I have the valve charts for this machine and it should be quite easy to use apart from the A & B pots, I have no idea how these work except for some sort of backing-off, calibration or 'zero' controls, can anyone help me with this so that I can get this venerable piece of kit earning it's keep again?

Thanks,

Adrian

I think that the A and B pots have the same operation as the A and B pots of the Taylor 45C. The manual for that is attached.

But have a look at this thread https://www.vintage-radio.net/forum/...645#post786645

Many thanks, it looks like the 45C manual covers the operation of the 45A so problem solved!
