Setting up my hand-me-down cisco891 (beginner lab)

Hi there.

I am setting up my first CCNA lab and I was fortunate enough to acquire a cisco 891 for free from an old colleague! Now I'm faced with the task of setting myself up as the admin for it, but because it was previously owned there's already a password set up for a different user... When I use my console cable to connect to it and access it in PuTTY, I cannot get past the login. and I'm not sure how to get around it.

 

If anyone can help point me to the right resources to figure out how to get this to work, it would be greatly appreciated!
