Even if you have the correct output filament transformer, check the primary.
I have a few from the olden days of 115 line voltage.

4CX250’s want 6.000. 
My 30L1 wants 115/230, not today’s 120/240 +.
There are Eimac papers that suggest running a percent or two below listed number and cranking it up  in a few years when power falls off.
Do a search.
