As the title says.

I need service manual (and user manual) for a Bandmaster/Dirigent 609K. They don't seem to be available for download. Anybody willing tho share a copy.

English, Danish or Swedish is OK.

Problem, is no sound output. Output valves doesn't glow so  I assume they´re gone.

The white deposits at the inside top of the valves glass envelope is usually a sign of leaking.

Here in Finland, Old Skool repairmen call the leaking valves "students" after this cap:

At this time of the world, I believe the best replacement is one that is available. There are plenty of NOS valves on popular auction sites, but the prices can be a bit high.

EL84 is a popular instrument amplifier output valve, so some music shops stock them as well.
