Greetings, /r/coffee! Long time lurker, first time poster.
I'm a working barista that just came into a very used Nuova Simonelli Mac 2000 V two group machine. Aside from pulling a good shot at work, I know nothing about the actual mechanics, maintenance, and setup of a commercial grade machine. I'm looking for some general information for complete noobs on how to go about repairing and getting my new baby in good shape. I've done some searching around and I can't find much info on my particular machine and what I do find is usually about 5 years out of date.
The machine was used for several years commercially and was placed in storage (haphazardly) about 3 years ago. It was working when it was moved to the basement of the coffee shop I work in now. It has apparently been sitting on its side this whole time which includes the last 3 Pittsburgh winters and summers. The building is climate controlled 7 days a week, but I'm not sure how well the basement maintains a steady temperature.
I was given this machine, so right now I have a grand total of $0 invested. From what I can tell, the costs of properly getting it up to snuff can mount pretty quickly. I'm pretty handy, but I'm really not sure what kind of mess I'm about to undertake here.
I was hoping /r/coffee could give me a little friendly advice about the amount of ass-ache I'm looking at.

Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Thanks for the quick comments! At least I know in general what I'm looking at here. I'll post on the progress of the rebuild once I get rolling.

Hey Guys, I just picked up an older(2001) Nuova Simonelli the other day on craigslist for a great price. My goal is to clean up this machine to use at my office at work.

As you can see in the pictures, the internals of the machine are pretty dirty, but this should be pretty easy to clean up now that I have it all opened up. What I'm more concerned about is how to cleanup all the plumbing, including the boiler, etc..What other steps should I take before using this thing. Its a plumbed in machine so I dont know how to get any sort of cleaning solution in there. Lastly, does anyone know how to reprogram the buttons on this machine? Thanks
