If you don't know the amplifier's history (was it working and suddenly stopped before being given to you?) it may not be worth the time you'll spend methodically troubleshooting.
A good starting point on HiFi of this age (who still builds HiFi today anyway?!) is to check / refresh the solders, clean contacts on all the switches and potentiometers before actually starting any real troubleshooting.
It's also a good idea to check the speaker protection relay's contact resistance.
Have you tried an external source on various inputs rather than only the tuner?
