Mine was hidden in a warehouse for 2 years before the bank found it that I bought it from. It needed quite a bit.. Change out all the 25 plus filters and air dryers and new fluids to start. Load test your batteries to 750amp, Check the DOT stamps on tires and Newell changes 3 years on steering tires and 5 years on others,Check water sytem for leaks and dump valves for dried out paddles, I would drain the fuel tank, but thats just me and prime the engine and genset with new fuel, Spray Brakeleen wherever you see oil or grease buildup and then check for leaks. Air up and check for air leaks after reaching 110lbs. Spray soapy water on any suspicious hoses or fittings to confirm leaks. Most everything else is just check and re check as "Lot Rot" is our biggest enemy.Don't forget the Aquahot, The frig and dishwasher
