sorry another bread maker question (cleaning)

Options
Hi there

I was just given a bread maker by a friend who has moved abroad which I am very grateful for, but when I opened it to have a poke around I noticed it smells a lot (I am guessing from being sat around unused for months or years)

Can anyone give me any advise on how to clean it up -= obviously I'll take the bucket & blade & soak/clean in warm soapy water but its the rest I am unsure of how to tackle

many thanks :D

    Hot, soapy water and lots of elbow grease, making sure not to immerse the electrics :D
