1. Well, first thing I'd do would be replace ALL the fluids. If the oil had been drained previously, I'd probably take the front cover off and just get a look at the inside. If you wanted to do a little less work, just put the cheapest oil in you can find and run it a little and replace that oil later on, after 50-100 miles.
2. Take the crank bolt cover off (front center, below the rad) and rotate it by hand a few times just to make sure things move freely inside.
3. Replace spark plugs and the air filter (eliminate non-running possibilities) and drain the 2 tubes underneath the air box.
4. Either put in a new battery or one that you know works and is well charged.
5. Once you're done all that set the kill switch to "off" and crank the motor until the oil light goes out. It may take a little while, so thats one reason you'll want a newly charged battery.
That's me, I'm sure there's some other things I forgot or others will recommend. Good luck, let us know how things go.
