Our tenants moved out and left a dirty stove with rusted and soiled solid stove plates as well as a greasy oven. How should I clean these plates without causing further harm?

Replace the burner pans. They aren’t too expensive. You might consider spray painting them with black BBQ paint. Heat proof.
Mix 3 parts baking soda to 1 part water or white vinegar and apply the paste to the rust spots. Allow it to sit for 20 minutes. Scrub the rust spots with a scrubbing sponge or old toothbrush to loosen and remove any remaining rust stains. Rinse the burners and examine them for rust.
Throw drip pans away . very cheap to replace. Use oven cleaner for inside.
