Possibly the only TV set to have it's own service frame. Take the back off, turn the chassis upside down and you have the easiest TV to repair of all time.

Remember seeing pictures of radio receivers being tested in the old EMI works. The chassis was fitted into a service frame to permit easy repair and adjustment. Already fitted for service work in the 1590.
