Pic of schematic I'm using attached no voltage measurements anywhere. Maybe they need filling in for future reference.0
You can annotate the schematic with the voltages given in the valve voltage and current tables given in the manual.

The grids that are attached to one side of the filament are the suppressor grids, remember that the filament is also the "cathode" in directly heated valves.
