Compression specs for 1987 MB300TD

I have an acquaintance who's just emailed me asking about compression specs for a prospective buy he's contemplating.

He's had a compression test done and the numbers are thus:


1 - 390
2 - 410
3 - 390
4 - 390
5 - 390
6 - 390

Can anyone furnish the service limit and normal range for this engine? To my eye, these look quite good for your garden-variety diesel, but without real specs I am only guessing.
