In this video, I start to take this table apart. I am working on the Y axis at this point.

 I am also finding the first real problems that I did not expect. I expected the razor sharp edges and the poor assembly, but this table is showing a few other real problems. We shall see what else is wrong later.

As to the rust, remember, this is a brand new, fresh out of the box item. It shows some damage on the hand wheel and of course the rust where the plating on the indicator ring failed. The was nickle plated from the factory and clearly the ring was not properly cleaned before plating. The quality control is just sad.
