First try powering it up with the fusible link removed and all the tubes installed. That way you will only have power going to the tube filaments.

It's a series filament set so you have to either have the CRT connected or use a power resistor to replicate it's filament. If all the tubes light up, then I'd put the fusistor back in and go for a full power up.

Good luck!
