If you are going to tear it down, then a pressure washer is what I use.
My recent South Bend purchase went to the quarter car wash before I unloaded it out of the pickup. I blew it down with air a few minutes later, then lots of WD40. It did not need much more than that.
I recently bought a SAG 14 that had been nicely repainted, ran well etc.. I decided to change out the oil in the headstock, quick change gear box and the apron. All told close to 5 gallons of oil. The oil window was fogged on the headstock and the Q.C. box. The apron leaked like a sieve. Long story short w/ new seals ordered I took the apron apart and found that recently it had been full of water as the result of pressure washing. The apron top has 2 locating tapered dowels of which one was missing. Saved it just in time!
As Rex mentioned if you do use a pressure washer you will have to go all the way in a teardown to get the water out. I could go on w/ this but will probably do a new post for the Graziano SAG contingent here on PM.
