Philco 45 Tone Control Question

I've pretty much finished electronic restoration on 45 chassis. I took apart the bakelite block tone control module. Unfortunately, my RIDER schematic does not give me the values of the three caps inside the block. Can anyone tell me the values and what order they're wired in?
Thanks,

The values are 0.01Uf, 0.02uF and 0.001uf.
The .001 is directly across to rotor common (ground) and is not switched. The .01 is connected to the center contact and the .02 is connected to the third contact. The first position is off and has no capacitor.

Terry...

I'm electronically challenged, but you made it very clear on how to wire the caps in....

THANKS,

Britt Abbott
