Default Oxycon question

I have two Devilbliss oxycon that haven't been used since July. We had sewer backup into our basement and have spent most of our spare time redoing it. Am finally getting back to my glass. Is there anything that I should be doing before I firing them up again? Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Thank You!

No,
Maybe check to make sure nothing is living in them first

Be sure to warm them up a bit if they are in a cold area. Should be no colder than 40F or so.

Make sure your cabinet filter is clean. After sitting around for several months, it could be dusty and you don't want to pull any fine dust into your machine.
