I inherited an 80g I-Pod classic (I have two 160g myself). How do I erase all the information that the other person had on it and make it mine?

I inherited an I-Pod classic (80g) and would like to get it back to the factory settings (as if it were new). Is it possible to do so and how do I do it? Do I need to have an Apple store do it for me? I also own two 160g I-Pods so I don't want to go into my computers and possibly mess up those libraries. Any help will be appreciated.

iPod classic, Windows 7, 80gig
