You will need a can of super duster, a can of spray contact cleaner, and a large handled screwdriver.
Unplug the unit. (this is important! Cleaners can be flammable, and failure to do so could result in bodily harm.) Using the screwdriver, open the case. Use the large part of the handle to whack the mice and drive them out. Now use the duster to blow all the dust, hair, leaves, cookie crumbs, and dead insects out of the case.
OK, all kidding aside, most dials and pots are open at the back. Spray the contact cleaner into the opening so that it wets the inside of the control. Rotate the control several times. Spray it again to flush the junk out. and operate the control as you do so.
Once you have cleaned all the controls in this fashion, give the cleaner a but of ime to evaporate and clear away.
Plug it in and try it out. If your happy and you know it, clap your hands, then put the whole thing back together and clean the wife's kitchen table off. A happy wife makes a happy home, and it's a lot easier to listen to her sing than gripe!

Use Can-Air. Remove knobs and use canned air to blow out the variable resistors. Knobs=variable resistors.
