Default Repair manuals for Pfaff 6091 and 1540?

My wife has a Pfaff 1540 and a Pfaff 6091 sewing machines.

She makes purses and sells them, so she puts a lot of wear and tear on
these machines, and they go into the shop quite a bit. But the shop
takes about three weeks to fix things, and sometimes both machines end
up being out of commission at the same time, so she's without a
machine. (She has other machines, but her purses require strong
machines with a double stitch (?) and a walking foot (?), which the
other machines don't have.)

I'm reasonably good at fixing things, and I've tried to fix her
machines with some limited success. Usually she gets needles broken
inside somewhere, and recently she seems to have screwed up the needle
timing on the 6091.

I can figure stuff out, but general adjustment tends to escape me or
take a very long time, as I don't know how it should be (and I don't
really know how to sew either, so that further complicates things.) A
workshop manual or something for these machines would be most helpful.
Is there one available, perhaps something like what the repair place
would use?
