Line Magnetic 845 Premium bias setting. Advice needed!

Hello everyone,

I recently got a used Line Magnetic 845 premium and I need some help with bias setting.

I am not entirely sure how to adjust the bias with the knobs in the front.
I believe the correct bias setting is 70mA for the 845 tubes (V1-V2) and 45mA for the 300B tubes (V3-V4).

Here is a photo a small video to see how its setup at the moment:

Are the knobs set to the correct setting?

Any ideas are appreciated.
Many thanks.

The bias instructions are on page 9 and are straightforward. https://www.line-magnetic.eu/images/line-magnetic/pdf/Manual-LM-845PREMIUM-UK.pdf

You can probably double check that with Jonathan. On the 518 there’s a small toggle type lever next to each 845 tube that when moved shows the bias on the front meter, If the 845 premium doesn’t have them then checking the bias may be as I note above
