Rob,
The line cord was not in a bag, maybe that is why I can't find the fuses.
Maybe the radio shack fuses are a bit larger

The spring under the amp-end of the fuses sort of pushes the fuse ends out a

Quite true, Phil, but Jim said his holder was all the way in like it shows
in the manual and door still wouldn't close.
On mine closing the door is tight with the holder in place - especially the
first time. I'm reluctant to suggest a hammer G, but a little extra

with the amp so I went to Radio Shack and picked up two 3 AG 6 amp fuses for
240 v operation.

Hi Jim:
The fuse block is fully seated the way. See the bottom illustration on page
5 of your owner's manual. The contacts offer significant resistance as you
push the block in the last few millimeters and it's important you fully seat
it.
