I have a question for you to answere the question, wher has it just sat, can moisture get to it, if so than it sould be locked up but if no moisture has gotten to it than it should'nt be locked up, if it is dry just do the normal maintnance that you would do on any other machine but if the tank is dry i would definatl rise it out with gas, wait a minuite rinse the tank out with gas no matter what, check the tires make sure their not dry rotted and maybe even the bearings, if their is a grease fitting than greas them good. That should do it.
