Default Ekco TMB272 - TX275

I recently repaired my TMB272.
This proved not too difficult, but the set still has to be aligned better - several coils are very difficult to reach though! The cabinet must get some attention as well (in time…).

A different set of this family is the TX275, of which I have 2 versions: one is 625 only, the other is 625E + 625B + 819B.
The 625 TX275 looks quite a bit like the TMB272; the 3-standard one has an additional unit built in:

The TX275 uses EF80s where the TMB272 has 6F1s.

Both TX275s have a desintegrated LOPT housing:

Does anyone know if service data (and/or alignment data) for the TX275 exist?
I couldn’t find anything online.
(I have the original Ekco service data for the TMB272, but the TX275 is different in many aspects.)

Thanks for your advise / help!
