The other thing you can do instead of jumping out the fuse is to put your DMM set for reading milliamps (requires a lead change on the meter) in place of the fuse and watch the current. You should be getting a reading in the 200ma range somewhere give or take after 20 seconds or so.
If it stays low, the output tube is safe or the tube itself could be very weak, but if it goes over 250ma and keeps climbing past 300ma, shut it off.
