Me and my Wife bought our first house. The house was previously owned by a 96 year old lady so there is ALOT of vintage items.

Originally we were going to replace the washer but after some research it sounds like people love these old dishwashers and they work really well

The previous owners kids told us that the washing machine has not been used much in the past 10 years as the lady lived alone and didn’t need it

My question is after 10 years of little to no use what steps should I take before running the machine to make sure that nothing will break and to also make sure nothing will leak
