We used to put the sets up on carts and service them from the bottom access plate, no need to remove chassis.

We had rollaround service carts with carpeted tops for that purpose. Carpet protected the up-ended cabinet. Often had to slide the chassis back in addition to removing the service plate.

We would flip the Zenith color sets upside down, on a raised wooden platform with a carpeted top; two people were needed. With the bottom plate removed, most of the parts were accessible. I did prefer to pull the chassis for some repairs, such as replacing flybacks or electrolytic capacitors.
