Saw that. You can ultimately get around this. Not sure you even need it if you can recap properly and tame your line voltage to work the filament and B+ properly. Those sets were designed to work all over the world with much different mains supplies.
Fisst conservatory measure to see if delicate filaments of the tubes are OK, next step deal with all the filter and other paper capacitors, look for crispy or out of range resistors, then come back. Do not atempt to power up again until then.
Many things might have happened over the decades. Take a look and make a few snaps to see what has gone on in the set, and please post them.
