you can buy a variety of test tapes from TEAC, amongst others. For
azimuth aligment,
speed etc. The maintenance manual for my 4-track gives order codes but
unfortunately
it is the other side of Europe right now. 

Apparently these tapes are quite expensive (I heard approx 20 UK pounds each !)
so it may be better to get someone who does it for a living to set yours up.
