If you were looking at one of these, what should one keep an eye out
for?

Shaft bearings nice and tight, quiet and smooth. Most are.

Look at the ways where the moveable table goes up and down, make sure it is
not rusted up, and in good shape.

Move the infeed table all of the way up to the same height as the outfeed.
Get the straightest straight-edge you can find and make sure it touches on
the whole length of both tables. If it does not, walk away. It is not
worth trying to fix that, and if you do not, it is un-useable.
