How to safely bias Cayin A88T Tube amp

I know this amp has been the target of much talk on this subject, but does anyone have a step by step guide to biasing this fantastic amp? I realize there are some dangerous voltages in there, and to do the job, you have to take the back plate off and switch the amp on right? But, where do I take the readings from, once I'm in there?

I'm sure there was a post on here with pictures, but I can't find it for love nor money.

Kindest regards

Best to talk directly to Steve, the US distributor. I have seen him do it himself at his work bench when he worked on mine at the time I replaced the tubes. Contact Steve at cayinusa.com

Do you have any exposed biasing pots in your amp?

If you take the bottom cover off you will see the exposed pots. But do call Steve he will step you through it.
