Add some oil into the cylinders and let it sit for a while . If that doesn't work , you'll have to tear into it and see what's going on . Could be a number of things ... seized top end , seized bearings in the bottom end . Check the clutch , see if it moves freely .

Engine oil .

When you put the machine away the last time , did you fog the cylinders???
