They vary a lot so it's difficult to generalise.

I generally don't relubricate in the absence of a fault. I clean any idler wheels, mating surfaces and pulleys with meths. I reset the azimuth, and reset the tape speed using a test cassette and CD if this is reasonably easy to do. Obviously the tape path gets a good clean.
