Hi. I have a SH-3a and the tuning is the same. There is a slotted
potentiometer on the back panel of the synth just over from the pedal
inputs. The slotted pot is a gross tuning adjustment. Next to that
pot, just inboard is a rubber covered pot. That is a fine tuning
adjustment. Before you use either of these two adjustment pots, center
the tune knob on the front panel of the synth.

That's the easy part of tuning the synth. If you need to scale the
keyboard , it requires disassembling the electronics from the case. If
you need to go to those extremes, I can get out my service manual and
let you know the steps (I had to do the same on my SH-3a about a year
ago).
