We were in the same place as you back in 1986. I recommend getting the wood chips out of there before adding coolant. Most materials don't expand when contacted by the coolant, wood does, and it can get into small spaces.
thanks theres a bunch of wood chips in there from blocking during shipping ill throw an extra screen on the coolant tray and hose it down and let it run. i got some dial indicators and touch-off probes was able to get my vises square this weekend and so i think its go time!
