I have a Universal 25XPB but tachometers are pretty much the same across
manufacturers.  I checked mine with a cheap optical tachometer.  I used an
adjustment screw on the back to get it fairly accurate.

Every now and then I check it by running the engine up to max rpm.  The
engine has a governor so there's little risk of damage.  The max rpm for my
25XPB is 2900-3000.  So when I max it out and the tach says 2900-3000 rpm,
I know it's reading OK.

Digital optical tachs are cheap.  If you have a Harbor Freight close by,
you can probably pick on up for about $35.  Cheaper on Amazon.
